A good win to start the year!

Maddison & Tielemans struck as The Foxes secured a 5 straight win at Newcastle, winning 2-1 and moving only 1 point behind League Leaders Liverpool.

Vardy had a first goal ruled out for offside and volleyed wide from a narrow angle soon after the break, before setting up the 55th minute opener.

receiving the ball on the left side of the box on the counter attack, Vards teed up Madders, who powered a rising drive past keeper Darlow.

The Foxes doubled their lead in the 72nd minute as Albrighton pulled the ball back to Tielemans, who whipped a first-time finish inside the right post.

Newcastle’s substitute Andy Carroll gave the Magpies some hope, volleying the ball in to score his first goal since returning to Newcastle in August 2019, but the hosts failed to equalise.

Leicester equalled a club record by winning 5 successive away Premier League matches against a single opponent and climb to 3rd with 32 points, 1 point behind Liverpool and Man United.
Newcastle drop to 15th place on 19 points…
