Leicester City 4-2 Manchester City: Jamie Vardy hits hat-trick to ease Foxes' relegation worries

Leicester City eased their relegation worries after producing a stunning first half performance to blow away Manchester City at the King Power Stadium.

A hat-trick from Jamie Vardy and a strike from Andy King gave the Foxes their first league win in six games, leaving Claudio Ranieri’s men four points clear of the bottom three.

Aleksandar Kolarov and Nolito scored two late consolation goals for City, but it mattered little to Pep Guardiola, who was on course to suffer his joint heaviest defeat as a manager before the Serbian’s set-piece.
