This is a fixture that normally produces the Premier League goods.
Goals normally fly in when these two go toe-to-toe.
When these two sides square up, we normally get value for money.
Since Leicester City returned to the Premier League nine years ago,
matches between these two clubs have produced 71 goals,
the most of any fixture in the division in that period.
Fantastic clearance, that is.
And it goes again, Davis with the touch!
It was for Tottenham Hotspur!
Well, the Tottenham players celebrate.
I'm not sure who got the final touch,
but those in white don't care.
Ahead inside 15 minutes.
The pace on the ball eludes everybody.
Christensen just tries to stick a leg out,
gets it all wrong and hits Bentoncourt.
Bentoncourt knows very little about...
Marking zonal spurs again.
Hopped on its way.
Benthamcourt cleared as far as...
Mendy!
What a moment for him.
Their position in the game and the table,
that will do Leicester City the world of good.
And he hits it first time.
What an absolutely brilliant strike.
Bentoncourt does excellently well at the back post,
heads it away, Perisic doesn't get close enough.
And he just puts his laces through it.
Fraser Forster can do nothing.
He's beaten by sheer pace.
People will turn round and say,
oh, he was beaten at the near post.
He was beaten at the near post by an absolutely fantastic strike.
There is nothing that Fraser Forster can do about that.
That is a brilliant strike and a great goal
to get this Leicester team back in the game.
You wouldn't believe, watching that goal,
that that's only the second goal of his...
They've lost the first header.
Bentoncourt's done extremely well.
What a fantastic strike by Teti.
He finishes it as cool as you like.
Fraser Forster running out to him.
First time finish.
Nacho running it dire here.
Support arriving for Maddison.
Nacho!
Nacho there, but he strikes the ball.
18 yards from goal,
two or three yards away from him, gives him an opportunity.
He's certainly worked hard,
I've been really impressed with his performance.
Hasn't stopped running.
Barnes, through for four!
Checking and checking,
and it looks like it is going to go 3-1 rather than 4-1.
Well, that's one of the closest decisions that you'll see.
He's been going offside, the goal's been disallowed.
Very disappointing for Harvey Barnes,
because it was an excellently worked goal and a great finish.
Here's Maddison now.
Barnes, with room...
Forster's bottom left-hand corner.
Once again, the goalkeeper at Tottenham can do nothing about it.
Four closing down from a right dive,
far too much time and space on the edge of the box.
Nothing more than Harvey Barnes.
Don't think it'll take him up anywhere in the league.
Don't think it'll take him up a place, if anywhere,
but the last two performances against Aston Villa away
and the performance here today
certainly uses a catalyst for the rest of the season.
Leicester City show what they're capable of.
It's a result that underlines how strange their season has been.
