Kelechi Iheanacho and Jamie Vardy were both on target as Leicester beat Stoke 2-0 on Saturday, at the King Power Stadium to stay on top of the Championship.

Skysports reports that Iheanacho scored for the third successive game as the dominant Foxes reached the 30-point mark from only 11 games and already have a 10-point cushion to third.

But, once more, Enzo Maresca’s side had to work hard for their victory against stubborn opponents, with injury-hit Stoke providing the league leaders with few chances until the latter stages.

Iheanacho broke the deadlock after 24 minutes but Leicester had to wait until the 79th minute before substitute Vardy netted his fourth league goal of the season from close range.
