Match summary

Jamie Vardy and Harry Maguire scored a goal in each half as Leicester City won 2-0 at Newcastle United.

Leicester went ahead from the penalty spot in the 30th minute when Jamie Vardy scored after DeAndre Yedlin had handled a Maguire shot.

With Newcastle struggling to create clear-cut opportunities, Leicester doubled their advantage on 73 minutes.

A corner from the right by James Maddison found Maguire, who powered his header beyond Martin Dubravka.

Still without a win this season, Newcastle are in 18th with two points, as Leicester move into seventh with 12 points.
