Hull City have fallen five points behind league leaders Cardiff City after being held to a goalless draw at home to Leicester City.

The Tigers, who remain second in the Championship table, recorded 11 shots on target at the KC Stadium, but found Leicester keeper Kasper Schmeichel in fine form.

Schmeichel made a hat-trick of saves to deny Robert Koren, as well as thwarting Jay Simpson on four occasions.

At the other end, Antony Knockaert looked dangerous for the Foxes and went close to snatching a surprise win late.
