Stuart Robson and it is a day of renewal the first game of the Premier League season always something to look forward to it's Leicester city up against Aston Villa well the atmosphere is incredible inside the stadium Derek there's a real sense of optimism amongst the fans about the new season and what it might bring it's been a long wait but hopefully we get a great game to kick their campaigns [Applause] off well here's how Leicester city will line up Wilfred and Dei starts with Harry Winks in the engine room and they line up with just the one Striker looking to do a bit of damage [Music] good here's how the lineup looks for Aston Villa [Applause] thank you King Power Stadium enjoy the [Applause] game and the game begins Winks what can they do to stop him running at [Applause] them Bailey a chance to whip it in what a lovely St lethal piece of finishing drilled home with true conviction tremendous goal let's see this again because the delivery into the box couldn't be any better played into just the right area and then just look at the Finish Derek he reads the flight perfectly and absolutely smashes it beyond the goalkeeper there's just no stopping that so the match has restarted One n [Applause] here oh him with a chance and the goalkeeper has outdone himself with that save [Applause] and over it comes half-hearted clearance he's protecting it well well somehow the goalkeeper got to [Applause] it frantic action from one end to the other they weren't ahead for long and this match is level again back underway level pegging one goal the in this game Onana [Applause] mcin on the ball zaniolo well read to ease the [Applause] pressure Watkins well he's given it [Applause] away indeed leester being afforded too much space here well Foul Play says the [Applause] referee play in there could still be dangerous and a Super Header it looked as though it might be going in Niko could be dangerous and now waiting to pounce and a stinging shot but off Target well as you said off Target when really that should be hit in the back of the net that's a golden [Applause] opportunity Nicolo [Applause] Dano he's in here on a powerful effort but not threatening the goalkeeper and he'll be [Applause] disappointed Leon Bailey oh that's a super piece of Defending [Applause] oh great [Applause] vision and Lester regaining possession oh great [Applause] vision and a simple clearance a good one well they're on the scent of something [Applause] positive and still trying to get the shot off the high press was on and the Chan is on foiling his opponent completely well that effort was always going wide he's not going to be best pleased with himself and Dei well there to [Applause] intercept well Aston Villa have had all the ball in the last 15 minutes they're creating plenty of chances and looking a constant threat you feel they have to take the lead at some point with this sort of domination it's really going so well for them and who knows they might be able to craft another opportunity well it looked highly promising but they got nothing out of it and the ball in behind the Defenders but mistimed his run well he's got the timing all wrong there he just needs to bite his [Applause] time and options in the center he gots it back can he give them the advantage great defending now will the cross work out for them well he wasn't messing around round with the clearance and he's clear as [Applause] lines well they might be able to launch a Counterattack Defenders need to cover it could be up for grabs oh that is a Super Save well he had to finish that but credit to the goalkeeper that's a brilliant stop go zaniolo Matson on the ball zaniolo Bailey well a classic example of how to intercept Cody Daka and quick thinking defensively counterattacking very much an option now can they take advantage can't miss surely oh fine attempt but denied by the bar well he thought that was in and I have to say so did I it was a really good [Applause] effort welling up B stoppages we will have two extra minutes well there was imp pending danger but good [Applause] defending must take the lead here and they have you've got to say it has been coming [Applause] well no more time left that concludes the first half here at the King Power Stadium not to be too blunt about it Stuart but this has been a struggle for him up front he just hasn't been able to affect the game so far he hasn't had too much of the ball but even when he has he's not looked threatening [Applause] and the game begins Bailey a chance to whip it [Applause] in what a lovely strike lethal piece of finishing drilled home with true conviction tremend oh in with a chance and the goalkeeper has outdone himself with that save he's protecting it well [Music] well underway once more and it's going to be fascinating to see what developments occur in this second [Applause] half oh nice ball over the top to chase really bright looking attack well danger averted thanks to his teammate a very effective play in possession now in a more than decent position he takes aim oh just wide of the mark goal kick well that never looked like troubling the keeper did it but it was worth an effort a good strike from him Leon Bailey on the ball [Applause] zaniolo it looks promising they couldn't quite muster a real threat well this is certainly the home of live football eatv and looking forward to bringing you more action from the premier leag what a great opportunity [Applause] ezri cona mcin just have to make sure they don't get caught on the Counterattack and they'll regard that as a very disappointing end to the move Dennis priet and a foul in the opinion of the referee now what can they do from this free kick situation and that is goalkeeping of the very highest [Applause] order Nicolo Dano well moving the ball forward they might be in business Zolo big chance well you have to say he's going to be very cross with himself he'll certainly be disappointed with that that was a poor effort and we have more live Premier League action coming up for you soon on eatv it's Aston Villa facing Everton and in with a real chance and it's a goal level again what a match this is turning out to be well we can take another look now it's wonderful interplay between the two of them to start the move and there's certainly no doubt about the Finish he really hits it with power and accuracy nothing the keeper can do about that so underway again and it's a story of par two goals a piece in this [Applause] one Dhaka Lester moving the ball ball with purpose but timely defending when it mattered and passing it [Applause] well oh how about that for a tackle a real opening now and a goal in the lead again and fully deserved well here we can see it again look at the way Glides past the defender to create space for himself and when he gets onto it he decides to go for power it's a really emphatic finish which gives the keeper no chanceo Zolo the attack can continues they're making considerable progress opportunity here what a lovely strike lethal piece of finishing drilled home with true conviction tremendous goal well just look at this again great technique perfect contact and a brilliant finish top stuff [Applause] for so the current score line [Applause] 42 mcin [Applause] Onana well he's given it away can the owner of the Red registration plenty of supports here return to your great thank you he'll be breathing a sigh of relief ball one intense pressure good [Applause] distribution oh nice ball over the top and sloppy in possession from Villa [Applause] Winks can he make it count oh that's textbook goalkeeping and time for the change now short Corner [Applause] favored and the referee allowing the game to flow could reduce the deficit oh keeper dealt with it out a play Leo throw in coming up chance to cross and with that the attack Fizzles out and we've entered the final 5 minutes Rogers Zolo Top Class defending now got to tread carefully sound piece of [Applause] goalkeeping Watkins beautifully weighted ball oh cleared away superb defending massive credit well taking into account all the stoppages 3 minutes to be added [Applause] on and crossed in there decent cross but nobody in the vicinity and the throw in for Leicester [Applause] city well they've decided to make a change showing a real will to win the ball Zolo promising pass oh body in the way crucial [Applause] can someone get on the end of this and there goes the whistle for full time the Villa fans will leave the stadium Happy

performance and a good result as well well the offer cuts the figure of a thinking person's footballer and Stuart he's thought his way throughout this match well I have to say that was impressive not just his goals but his all round play he was excellent [Music] [Applause]
