Half-Time Report: Kenwyne Jones heads Stoke City into half-time lead

Kenwyne Jones's goal gives Stoke City a 1-0 lead at half time against Leicester City in the FA Cup.

Stoke City have gone in with a 1-0 lead against Leicester City at the Britannia Stadium in the FA Cup.

Shortly before the goal Ignasi Miquel made a superb block to deny Charlie Adam when the Scot fired in a shot with the goal at his mercy.

Anthony Knockaert had an ambitious attempt to equalise with a 35-yard volley before Jeff Schlupp fired wired after Paul Konchesky had teed up the Ghanaian striker.

Jones nearly added a second on the half-hour mark when he headed over from Adam's corner.
