Fuchs makes a good interception on the edge of his own penalty area, as Copenhagen push for a late equaliser. Leicester respond with a break, but Musa is denied the chance to have a close-range attempt on goal by Ankersen.
89'
What a save from Schmeichel! Cornelius is picked out at the back post by a good cross, with a low header threatening to creep into the bottom corner. The Leicester goalkeeper gets down to his right brilliantly, with Santander blasting the rebound a long way wide of the target.
87'
Leicester try to press upfield, but give away another free-kick, as play gets fractured further in these dying stages. Kvist opens the ball out to the left-hand side, allowing for Toutouh and Cornelius to combine, but the move ends with Augustinsson crossing straight behind for a goal-kick.
85'
Okazaki feeds a pass out to the left-hand side, with a cross then curled towards Vardy at the back post. The Englishman knocks down a header to tee up his Japanese strike-partner, but Jorgensen gets there first to clear ahead of the former Mainz forward. Less than five minutes remain in Denmark!
83'
K. Kusk enters the game and replaces B. Verbič.
Okazaki gets into the penalty area and goes down, claiming a shove from Kvist. The referee, however, points for simply a goal-kick. The Japanese substitute just can't believe it, but it would have been a free-kick anyhow, as first contact came outside of the area.
Kusk replaces Verbic out wide of the dying stages of this game.
82'
Vardy tries to race away down the left-hand side, but Jorgensen does brilliantly to come across and get his body in between the Leicester striker and the ball. Copenhagen have dealt well with the Foxes' ability to break forward at pace on the counter-attack.
80'
A long, aimless ball forward from Leicester is gobbled up by Olsen, as it appears that the away side are more than happy to take home a point. Santander picks out Ankersen at the back post, but the wing-back can only rattle a low shot into Fuchs.
78'
W. Morgan gets yellow.
Delaney manages to knock a pass into Santander, who wriggles away from Morgan easily. The Paraguayan, however, is caught by a stray leg from the Leicester captain, earning the away side yet another booking.
77'
Mahrez tries to earn a corner from Augustinsson down the right, but takes an accidental touch to knock the ball out of play for a goal-kick. Leicester threaten again moments later, with Vardy beating Ankersen for pace down the left, but a low cross towards Mahrez is hacked away by Jorgensen in the nick of time.
75'
Mahrez tries to dip in a cross from the right-hand side, but Delaney heads clear, with both of these sides trading blows as we get into the last 15 minutes. Hernandez launches in a long-throw, which finds Vardy at the back post, but the Englishman goes nowhere with it. Okazaki is already more involved than Schlupp had been during the whole second half.
Minute
Description
73'
Toutouh tries to whip in a cross from the left-hand side, but Huth hacks clear, before Copenhagen claim for handball! Delaney cuts in from the right and unleashes a shot, which is blocked inside the area, with the hosts believing that Huth denied it with his arm! Leicester respond with a quick break, but Olsen lashes a clearance away under pressure from Drinkwater.
71'
S. Okazaki enters the game and replaces J. Schlupp.
Schlupp is replaced by Okazaki for Leicester, signalling the end of a disappointing night for the former.
69'
Verbic is picked out at the near post, in some considerable space, but the Copenhagen wide man blasts a long way over the crossbar. Cornelius and Santander combine well moments later, with Augustinsson fed the byline, but a close-range finish from the away side is hacked off the line! End-to-end stuff, all of the sudden.
67'
Santander tries to spin in behind Huth, but the experience German defender sticks out a timely leg to intervene. Copenhagen enjoy a spell of possession and probe for a gap, but Ranieri's men are defending in two banks of four. Both teams are terrified of conceding the first goal now.
65'
Y. Toutouh enters the game and replaces R. Falk.
Falk takes his leave, with Toutouh given the last 25 minutes or so to impress.
64'
Schlupp tries to drive upfield at real pace, but a sliding tackle halts his progress easily. Leicester are showing more urgency, with Vardy's speed starting to tell in certain situations, but still the away side haven't generated a good opportunity. Olsen has been a spectator.
62'
With less than half an hour to play, this game isn't showing any signs of opening up and raining goals. Leicester have been much-improved since the restart, but neither goalkeeper has been asked to do a great deal. Both defences are coming out on top. Mahrez tries to feed a neat through-ball into Vardy's path, but Jorgensen intercepts, before the Algeria international blasts over the crossbar moments later!
60'
Vardy drills in a low cross from the right-hand side, which forces a clearance behind from Johansson. The Foxes' striker tries to encourage the travelling support to make more noise, before the resulting set-piece is easily cleared by the home defence. Huth sees a shot blocked well by Cornelius, which is something of a role-reversal.
58'
Ankersen feeds a pass inside to Falk, who goes down after a shove, but the referee tells the Danish winger to get up. Moments later, Santander is penalised for colliding with Huth. The home fans and players think that the referee has made some questionable decisions there. Leicester create a chance, after good work down the right, but a cut-back towards Vardy isn't met by the England international.
56'
Mahrez and Vardy combine on the edge of the penalty area, before a pass is set back to Amartey. The Ghanaian midfielder takes aim from 25 yards out, but drags a low shot a long way wide of the left-hand post. The stand behind Schmeichel's goal is absolutely bouncing - perhaps the home fans sense a goal is incoming?
54'
Copenhagen maintain a spell of pressure by winning a corner on the right-hand side, in front of their noisy fans. Augustinsson bends in a delivery, but Vardy heads half-clear, with Mahrez doing the rest. This is better from the away side, but Solbakken's men are yet to be asked any real questions by the combination of Vardy and Musa up top.
52'
Cornelius has a half-chance to get in behind Leicester's back four, but a pass rebounds off the Dane's heel. The away side take the incentive to get forward, with Schlupp bursting into the penalty area, but Jorgensen covers across to make a neat tackle. Moments later, Ankersen sees a shot blocked well.
50'
Kvist opens play out to the right-hand side, but Ankersen takes a poor touch and Fuchs gets goalside of the wing-back. Leicester respond with a counter, but Delaney mops things up nicely after a bursting run from Musa. An energetic start to the second period!
48'
Mahrez is given the chance to run in behind by Fuchs, but Olsen comes off his line to smother the ball quickly. Leicester are starting this second half quite brightly - Ranieri must have had some harsh words at the break! Again, the Algeria international is picked out at the back post, but this time he is found in an offside position.
46'
We are back underway in the second half in Denmark, as Copenhagen look to strip Leicester of their current 100 percent record in Group G. Solbakken's men have looked the more likely of the two sides to open the scoring so far.
45'
There is one minute of stoppage time in this first half.
44'
Falk jinks in from the right-hand side, but a low, stabbed pass from the winger can't find a scampering run into the box from Verbic. Copenhagen continue to get the ball into good areas, before then squandering it. Mahrez slots Musa in behind Ankersen, with a cut-back finding Vardy. The Englishman shoots on the turn, seeing an effort blocked, before a tame attempt on the rebound from Amartey is gathered up comfortably by Olsen.
42'
Luis Hernández gets yellow.
Hernandez gets a booking for a scrappy tackle on Augustinsson, as Leicester continue to get on the referee's bad side.
41'
Copenhagen play some neat triangles in midfield, before a clipped throughball from Kvist is dealt with easily by Huth. Neither of these teams can show any quality in the final third, but Solbakken's men are at least building the foundations for regular forays forward.
39'
Delaney shoots high and wide of the target, as Copenhagen continue to fire blanks and give Schmeichel some kicking practice. Leicester break down the right, but a curling cross from Hernandez is taken down and then cleared calmly by Ankersen. Composed defending.
38'
Jorgensen has been very strong in the air this evening, with Musa and Vardy feeding off scraps up top for the away side. Copenhagen have remained organised and forced their opponents long, with yet another aimless pass from Huth sailing out for a throw-in deep in the home team's half. Vardy plays a one-two with Drinkwater, but the England international striker is then penalised for a push on Ankersen.
36'
Amartey gives the ball away to Santander, but Hernandez and Drinkwater combine well to rob Verbic of possession. Within three passes, however, Leicester have gifted possession to their opponents yet again. Ranieri will be furious with his side's attempts at retaining the ball.
34'
Drinkwater tries to lift a long pass forward in search of Vardy, which Olsen can't deal with! The Copenhagen goalkeeper slices a clearance into the air, but fortunately for the hosts Ankersen is there to mop up. Moments later, Schlupp cuts in from the left and shoots, but he barely stings Olsen's gloves.
32'
Nothing is going right for Leicester, as Vardy scampers down the right before seeing an attempted cross deflect off Johansson and back onto himself - before running out for a throw-in. Copenhagen continue to control the play, with Drinkwater and Amartey currently being outclassed by the duo of Kvist and Delaney.
30'
Leicester are forced into two rushed clearances, before Santander volleys wide under pressure. Huth twice half-cleared, but the Paraguay international can't keep his eventual effort down. Schlupp respond with a drive down the left, but Ankersen recovers excellently to keep the Ghana international under wraps.
28'
Delaney takes aim from the edge of the penalty area, but the Copenhagen midfielder can only drill a low shot into a ruck of defensive bodies. The hosts are dominating possession and dictating proceedings, but still Schmeichel hasn't been forced into a notable save in this first half. Solbakken's side need to try and force the issue further.
26'
Copenhagen will be pleased with how this game has gone thus far, as Olsen has had nothing to do. Cornelius and Santander have caused problems, with Morgan and Huth making errors within the Foxes' back four. Ranieri will be wondering what exactly has happened to his usually dependable centre-backs. Leicester can't get hold of the ball.
24'
R. Huth gets yellow.
Huth gets a yellow for a very cynical challenge on Santander, after a stray touch from the ex-Chelsea defender got away from him. Both of Leicester's centre-backs have looked very nervy indeed while in possession.
23'
Cornelius rises well at the back post to meet a free-kick delivery from the right, but the Copenhagen forward can only direct a header shy of the target. Schmeichel takes his time over the resulting goal-kick, which isn't impressing the home fans at all.
22'
D. Drinkwater gets yellow.
Drinkwater picks up a booking for Leicester, as the England international clips the heels of Cornelius as the Danish striker tries to lead a dangerous break for the hosts.
Santander is outmuscled by Morgan on the edge of the penalty area, which forces the Copenhagen striker to slice an effort wide of the target. Moments later, Cornelius tries to race away down the right flank, but Drinkwater comes across to make a cynical tackle.
21'
Morgan makes hard work of a pass back that is aimed towards Schmeichel, under heavy pressure from Verbic, but the ball does get back to the Danish goalkeeper safely. Leicester try to respond with a quick break, with Mahrez the target of a ball over the top, but the Algeria international is caught offside.
19'
Drinkwater tries to break forward at pace, but Delaney slides in to make a great recovering tackle. Morgan gives away possession cheaply, which leads to Santander breaking down the left channel, but the Paraguayan striker can only direct a tame shot at Schmeichel.
17'
Delaney goes down heavily, after being caught in the face by a raised forearm from Musa, but the Copenhagen midfielder is fine to continue. Vardy and his striker partner have been struggled to get into the game, as they are a bit of a physical mismatch against two imposing centre-backs. The absent Islam Slimani might have been Ranieri's first-choice for this situation.
15'
Leicester are unafraid to work the ball all the way back to Schmeichel, in what has been a risk-free first quarter of an hour from the away team. Schlupp and Mahrez haven't really got into the game, with Musa currently being dominated physically by Jorgensen. Kvist looks to release Verbic down the left, but a drilled cross from the winger is blocked by Morgan. Moments later, Schmeichel watches a Kvist shot whistle past his near post.
13'
Augustinsson tries to bend in a cross from the left-hand side, but it comes to nothing. The same man is picked out on the same flank moments later, but a looping header from Santander at the back post is guided over the crossbar and behind for a visiting goal-kick.
11'
Leicester take a corner short on the right, but Mahrez can only lift a diagonal cross straight out of play for a Copenhagen goal-kick. Both of these teams are just settling down at the moment. Amartey is penalised for a scrappy tackle in the middle of the park, as things get a little bit fractured.
9'
Schmeichel tells Fuchs to get his head screwed on, as Leicester look to start this game in efficient fashion. After a bright start from the hosts, the away side have started to knock the ball around and ask a couple of questions. A long throw from the Austria international is half-cleared, before Drinkwater's shot on the rebound is deflected wide.
7'
Leicester finally manage to get their foot on the ball, with the home fans whistling the opposition loudly. Musa tries to flick a pass into Vardy, but the Nigerian forward can only find Jorgensen. Copenhagen try to counter immediately, but Santander is caught straying offside.
5'
Cornelius is found down the left-hand side, following a flicked pass, but Morgan frustrates the ex-Cardiff City striker. Copenhagen work a cross in from the same flank, but Huth half-clears, before a follow-up shot from Ankersen is deflected away from the danger zone. Leicester try to counter at pace, but Jorgensen mops up a throughball before Vardy can get there.
3'
Copenhagen enjoy the early possession, with Leicester prepared to sit back in their organised shape. A cross is clipped towards Santander, but Huth heads behind for corner, with the resulting delivery whipped in by Augustinsson. The left-back curls the ball in, but Schmeichel punches clear.
1'
We are underway in the first half in Denmark! Schmeichel may be familiar to this part of the world, but the rest of his teammates won't be. This is a tough test for the Foxes, who need to put in a good performance to keep their winning run going.
Hello and welcome to live coverage of Leicester's away trip to Denmark in the Champions League, as Claudio Ranieri's men look to maintain their 100 percent group record against Copenhagen. The last time these two met, Riyad Mahrez grabbed the only goal in a 1-0 victory for the Foxes at the King Power.
Currently, Leicester sit on top of the Group G pile, after picking up wins against Copenhagan, Porto and Club Brugge respectively, with the away side holding a five-point lead over their closest rivals for progression into the next phase of the competition. Ranieri's men hold all of the cards at the minute.
TEAM NEWS: Rasmus Falk starts out wide for the hosts, and the Dane is the only change from the side that previously started at the King Power Stadium. Thomas Delaney and William Kvist offer quality in midfield, with Federico Santander able to make himself a handful up top. Ludwig Augstinsson and Peter Ankersen will look to kick on from full-back.
TEAM NEWS: Luis Hernandez gets a rare start at right-back for the away side, with Jeffrey Schlupp deployed on the left-hand side of the midfield in place of Marc Albrighton. Daniel Amartey will offer central midfield energy alongside Danny Drinkwater, with Jamie Vardy and Ahmed Musa having the pace to cause problems up top on the break.
HALF-TIME! Leicester and Copenhagen go in goalless at the interval, but the hosts have had by far the better of this half. The Danish club have dominated the ball and had the half-chances, with a lack of cutting edge troubling both coaches tonight. The visitors need to buck their ideas up and fast.
FULL-TIME! Leicester fail to win for the first time in this season's edition of the Champions League, with Copenhagen able to earn a deserved point on home soil. The visitors didn't put in a great performance, but did manage another clean sheet, with Solbakken probably viewing this game as two points dropped. That's all that we have time for, we hope to see you again next time.
