Ndidi Stars, Iheanacho Out As Mahrez, Vardy Fire Leicester Past Spurs
Nigeria international Wilfred Ndidi put up a fine performance as Leicester City defeated Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 in their English Premier League fixture on Tuesday.
Ndidi who was on from start to finish in the highly entertaining encounter provided the assist for his team’ second goal scored by Riyad Mahrez and was also denied a goal by Hugo Lloris in the 27th minute.
His two other international teammates, Kelechi Iheanacho and Ahmed Musa, were not dressed for the game.
Vardy scored the Foxes’ opening goal in the 14th minute, lofting the ball over the head of Spurs goalkeeper Lloris after he was set up by Marc Albrighton.
The hosts who have picked up seven points from their previous seven home games this season looked more revitalised after the goal and were denied on a number of occasions by Lloris.
