The veteran Foxes forward has allowed the team to start the season relatively successfully after returning to the Premier League.
Leicester won their first match on their return to the English Premier League. The Foxes host Tottenham at their King Power Stadium.
At the end of the first half, the hosts found themselves on the back foot: James Maddison threw the ball into the penalty area, where Pedro Porro hit the far corner with his header.
However, immediately after the break the score was even again. In the 53rd minute, Issahaku Fatawu crossed at the far post, where veteran Jamie Vardy successfully blocked the cross.
