Half-Time Report: Leonardo Ulloa edges Leicester City in front against Swansea City

Ulloa edges Leicester in front

Leonardo Ulloa has netted in the 15th minute to give Leicester City the advantage over Swansea City at the break in their Premier League match at the King Power Stadium.

The home side took the lead when Wes Morgan knocked the ball into the path of Ulloa and the forward made no mistake as he rifled his strike into the bottom corner from close range.

Leicester pushed for a second goal as Marc Albrighton raided forward and brushed aside the challenge of Jordi Amat before launching a curling strike towards the net, but his effort went just past the post.

Swansea tried to hit back and carved out a good opportunity as Gylfi Sigurdsson raided forward and found space for a strike just outside the box, but his effort was straight at Kasper Schmeichel who made a comfortable stop.

The visitors threatened once more when Jonjo Shelvey burst through in midfield and curled an effort towards the bottom corner, but Schmeichel was able to make the stop as he got down well to his right.
