Once again, the Premier League\u00a0didn’t disappoint. There were plenty of goals, and excitement both early and late in the weekends games.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leicester did manage to hold onto pole position, after they travelled to Manchester and beat Manchester City 5-2. Jamie Vardy, the man in form, managed to bag himself a hat trick, against a disappointing Manchester City side.<\/p>\n

Leicester initially went behind to a Mahrez goal, which was hit sweetly into the top corner, but the lead didn’t last long, as Vardy scored a penalty gifted to him by Walkers foul. From here onwards, it was all Leicester, with City giving away another penalty, which was once again tucked away by Vardy. A few goals later, the game ended 5-2 in the favour of Leicester. The defeat is the first in Guardiola’s career where his side has conceded 5 goals, leaving City fans wondering what went wrong.<\/p>\n
