Vardy snatches late win at Sheffield United

Jamie Vardy's 90th minute strike earned Leicester City a 2-1 victory at Sheffield United.

Vardy thumped an early effort against a post before Leicester took the lead on 24 minutes through Ayoze Perez, who reacted quickest when Marc Albrighton's shot was blocked.

That advantage only lasted two minutes, with Oli McBurnie heading in from John Lundstram's corner. 

James Maddison hit the same post as Vardy shortly before half-time.

McBurnie came close to scoring another header on 66 minutes and then Kelechi Iheanacho was thwarted by Ramsdale.

Vardy claimed the three points late on when he slotted in from Maddison's through-ball.

The result moves Leicester up to fourth, while Sheffield United remain bottom with one point.
