Jamie Vardy Scores Late Goal to Help Leicester Beat Arsenal
England and Leicester City star player Jamie Vardy came up from the bench to help his team beat Arsenal at home 1-0. Arsenal is the club in the English Premier League that has received more goals from the striker in recent times. Jamie Vardy has scored a total of eleven goals in his twelve appearances.
It is four years after Arsenal tried to bring the striker to their team but failed. Jamie Vardy came off the bench to score against them yet again and ruined the home debut of the Gunners’ new £45m Ghanian midfielder Thomas Partey. Partey’s play is in the game is quite not the kind of play they hoped see in the future as time goes on.
Jamie Vardy’s record against Arsenal is one which only Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney has scored more Premier League goals against Arsenal than him. Vardy now has 109 Premier League goals, moving ahead of Peter Crouch and drawing level with Ryan Giggs. And it is actually a good one for him as he did not make his football debut at a very young age so to say, he made his debut at age 25.
He won the Golden Boot last season as the Premier League’s top scorer with 23 goals, and averages a goal every 64 minutes this season.
