James Maddison took a pre-match selfie on the Craven Cottage pitch before producing a performance that ensured the image will take a prominent place in the Leicester star’s family album.
Two moments of inspiration from Maddison set up both Leicester goals – scored in the first half by Kelechi Iheanacho and James Justin – and took Brendan Rodgers’ side back to third in the Premier League, leaving Fulham still seven points adrift of safety.
This result will have been as popular in Brighton, Burnley and Newcastle as it was in Leicester, as it left Fulham still without a league victory since they won the reverse fixture 2-1 at the end of November.
