Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has become only the third player to score in eight successive Premier League appearances.

For the eighth straight week, the 28-year-old got on the scoresheet as the Foxes beat West Bromwich Albion 3-2 away at the Hawthorns.

Vardy has now equalled the scoring runs of Manchester United legend Ruud van Nistelrooy and current Liverpool forward Daniel Sturridge.

He's also broken an all-time Leicester record that was set more than 90 years ago by club legends Arthur Rowley and Arthur Chandler, who both scored in seven games.

Leicester will face Watford next at the King Power Stadium.
