Huddersfield Town 0-1 Leicester City: Stephy Mavididi's strike keeps Foxes winning start going after closely fought contest at the John Smith's Stadium

‘Straight back up, straight back up,’ sang Leicester City’s travelling contingent in West Yorkshire. ‘Playing football the Enzo way.’

For much of this game Enzo Maresca’s Guardiola-inspired tippy-tappy met its match in Neil Warnock’s no-frills Huddersfield Town.

But just as the Terriers began to see an unexpected point against the promotion favourites come into view, Stephy Mavididi popped up to maintain Leicester’s perfect start.

Mavididi, who cost £6.4million from Montpellier, is the kind of signing Huddersfield can only dream of in a summer that so far seen them bring in only a back-up goalkeeper and a right-back on loan from Stoke.
