Leicester 4-2 Manchester City: Jamie Vardy's first hat-trick for Foxes as Premier League champions burst into life against Pep Guardiola's men

Jamie Vardy's hat-trick fired Leicester City back into life as they embarrassed Manchester City on Saturday night.

Vardy scored after three minutes to hand the Foxes an early lead before Andy King doubled the margin two minutes later. Vardy got his second goal of the game shortly afterwards when he finished off a superb move started by Riyad Mahrez.

He sealed his hat-trick when he took the ball round goalkeeper Claudio Bravo and squeezed home from a tight angle. Aleksandar Kolarov and Nolito scored consolation goals late on as City pushed for a way back into the game.
