Leeds: Dallas (48 ‘)
Leicester: Barnes (2 ‘), Tielemans (21’, feather 90 ‘+ 1), Vardy (76’)
After two consecutive losses at home, Leicester marked a comeback with a minimal win over Arsenal at the Emirates on matchday six of the Premier League. Going into the final match of Matchday 7, “The Fox” had to be invited into Leeds United’s rookie pitch, the new team also put in an impressive performance by burying “phenomenon” Aston Villa 3-0.

| Vardy made his first Premier League start in nearly a month and imprinted on his shoes in 3 goals |
Coach Brendan Rodgers continues to use a three-midfielder scheme similar to the victory over Arsenal. Jamie Vardy, the only scorer to help Leicester bring down Emirates, made his first Premier League kick in nearly a month with the help of Harvey Barnes and Dennis Praet.
At Elland Road, Leicester got off to a great start with the opening goal in the second minute. Coming off a very volatile pass from midfielder Robin Koch, Jamie Vardy was lightning fast to cut the ball and pass. Goalkeeper Illan Meslier then “clears the cover” for Barnes to simply cushion the ball into the empty net.
With advantages from a very young age, Leicester freely develops a defensive and counter-attacking style that has become a trademark. Thanks to Vardy’s extremely smart mobility, Barnes had 2 chances in just 3 minutes (8-11) to score, but both failed to beat Meslier.

However, Leicester didn’t have to wait too long to double score. In the 21st minute, Vardy had a dangerous header that forced Meslier to save. The ball leapt into the correct position of Youri Tielemans and the Belgian midfielder easily scored. The forward with the visitors’ number 9 jersey turned Koch into a “criminal” again in this situation.
If the counterattack was better used, Leicester could have scored more goals before entering the break. At the beginning of the second half, it was awarded to “Fox”. Stuart Dallas in an effort to hang the ball accidentally turned into a shot that sent the ball directly into the goal of Kasper Schmeichel. The Danish goalkeeper is out of sight, miscalculating the ball’s landing point.
In the 55th minute, luck was on Leicester’s side when an extremely technical shot from Pablo Hernández hit the wooden frame. Leeds United determined to have a point at home to play hard next time, but it is also an opportunity for the visitors to play their forte.

| Leeds only got 1 goal of honor |
In the 76th minute, Vardy ended Leeds United’s efforts by reestablishing a 2-goal lead for Leicester with an easy cushioning situation after a “clean-up” phase from rookie Cengiz Under. In the last minute of the official match, “Fox” again received a penalty when Mateusz Klich fouled James Maddison in the area. From a distance of 11 meters, Tielemans set the score 4-1.
Crushing Leeds United, Leicester maintained a total away victory in the 2020/21 Premier League and are also the only team to do this. 3 points from the last game of the 7th round also helped Rodgers’ masters and masters overtake Tottenham to take second place with just 1 point less than defending champion Liverpool.
