Leicester City's Jamie Vardy scored a dramatic late winner as they secured their first win in six matches and moved just one point away from safety in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Foxes, who had lost their previous five games, took the lead through James Maddison in the 27th minute before Vardy's goal ensured that they would not be relegated at the end of the season.

Vardy, who has been linked with a move to Manchester United this summer,Ligue 1 Focus celebrated his winning goal by running towards the stands and throwing his shirt into the air before he was mobbed by his team-mates.

It was a fitting end to an incredible campaign for the club, which has endured a difficult season under new manager Craig Shakespeare.

With just two games remaining, Leicester will now focus on securing a top-half finish to avoid relegation next season.

Despite their recent struggles, Leicester have shown that they still possess the talent to compete in the top flight and Vardy's performance on Sunday will surely boost their morale heading into the final few weeks of the season.
