Well, what a way for Jamie Vardy to bring his 16-game Leicester City goal drought to an end!

The forward had scored twice in the first 20 minutes, either side of Andy King drilling in a second goal against a beleaguered Manchester City side, which sent Claudio Ranieri’s men on their way to a memorable three points.

The Foxes, who have endured an indifferent start to their title defence, were simply outstanding – putting on a performance worthy of their status of league champions.

Vardy, 29, profited from a defensive misunderstanding to gain the match ball when, from a tight angle, he rounded goalkeeper Claudio Bravo, to finish from a tight angle.

Leicester will hope to build upon the win when they visit the South Coast to play AFC Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.
