Leicester ace Vardy thanks Van Nistelrooy

Published on: 22 November 2015

Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has thanked Ruud van Nistelrooy for his support after he matched the Manchester United legend's goalscoring record.

Vardy equaled his record of scoring in 10 consecutive Premier League matches as Leicester shot to the top of the Premier League with a comfortable 3-0 victory at Newcastle.

He said: "I may have matched Ruud van Nistelrooy's record but most importantly we have got the three points and a clean sheet.

"People kept sending his (good luck) tweet to me, fair play to him for doing that, he didn't have to do it."

And, of their lofty league position, Vardy added: "We just take every game as it comes. We can get goals and we've been solid at the back. We have a never say die attitude, we'll fight for each other right to the very end."
