Leicester City 4-1 Huddersfield Town: Tom Cannon scores twice as Foxes go 10 points clear at top of Championship

Tom Cannon scored twice - his first goals for Leicester City - as they resoundingly beat Huddersfield Town to move 10 points clear at the top of the Championship table.

The young striker, signed from Everton during the summer and making his first Foxes start, opened the scoring five minutes before half-time.

Ricardo Pereira doubled Leicester's lead early in the second half and Cannon netted again just before Michal Helik pulled a goal back for the visitors.

Stephy Mavididi restored the three-goal cushion with a deflected free-kick on 77 minutes as Leicester claimed an eighth win from their past 10 games.
