Vardy’s 22nd strike of the campaign earned a 1-1 draw for the Foxes at Emirates Stadium, after the hosts had taken a half-time lead.

Here’s how the Blue Army reacted to that late goal, which keeps the striker top of the 2019/20 Premier League goalscoring charts with four games left to play…

Pre-match

After a morale-boosting 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace at King Power Stadium on Saturday, there was plenty of optimism ahead of kick-off, as Leicester looked to pick up where they left off three days earlier.

But there was also a few nerves amongst the Foxes faithful, as City had previously only taken one point away at the Gunners in the Premier League era.

The game itself

After going behind early on, the Foxes recovered and were pushing for an equaliser, willed on by the many fans watching back home. Some of the Blue Army featured in social media posts on the Club's official Twitter page, encouraging City’s players on for a huge second 45 minutes at Emirates Stadium.

The goal

The moment all Foxes fans had been waiting for came in the 84th minute. Substitute Demarai Gray picked up the ball on the right and found Vardy in the middle, with the City No.9 making no mistake in flicking the ball home.

Reaction

After the full-time whistle had blown in north London, the City faithful took to social media to reflect on the game as a whole, including the Man of the Match…

Support your club. Stay safe. Follow at home.
