Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy sets new Premier League goals record

Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has set a new Premier League goals record by scoring in 11 consecutive games.

The Foxes hitman achieved the feat when he put his side 1-0 up against Manchester United in the 24th minute of the match at the King Power Stadium.

Vardy, who was playing non-league football with Fleetwood Town just three years ago, equalled Ruud van Nistelrooy's record of 10 consecutive Premier League strikes during his side's 3-0 win over Newcastle United last weekend.

The match eventually ended in a 1-1 draw after Bastian Schweinsteiger equalised late in the first half.
