Description

Jamie Vardy scored twice and made the other as an impressive Leicester maintained their unbeaten Premier League start by easing past Bournemouth at King Power Stadium.

Brendan Rodgers' side have won two and drawn two of their opening four games, showcasing their early ambitions of breaking into the top six at the end of the season with another excellent showing.

Vardy's opener was simple, yet stunning. He latched on to Ben Chilwell's punt into the left channel, took a touch before lobbing a perfectly-executed finish over Aaron Ramsdale.

His hard work for Youri Tielemans' goal for 2-1 epitomised his display, rolling the ball across the six-yard box for the Belgium international to tuck home from a yard out.

Bournemouth were lacklustre at best with Callum Wilson equalising for 1-1 with their only real chance of note.

At this early stage in the season, Leicester look well set in third position, while Bournemouth drop to 15th.
