For those who like to say 'football didn't start in 1992' I should say the record for scoring goals in consecutive top-flight games is Jimmy Dunne back in 1931-32. Playing for Sheffield United, the Irishman scored 18 goals in a 12-game streak.

So Vardy is one off levelling that.

Stan Mortensen hit 15 goals in consecutive games for Blackpool in the 1950-51 season, but he missed matches during that run because of injury, recovering to continue scoring when he returned to the side.

Football is just mad sometimes, isn't it? The crazy thing is I think we all expected Jamie Vardy to score today, didn't we? I'd have been surprised if he didn't.

A clinical break. 

Two passes and Jamie Vardy was in. He doesn't miss those.

"Oh my word! The whole stadium is up on its feet, myself included! It was an inch-perfect ball in behind the United defence, and Vardy was onto it in a flash. He got the ball out from under his feet and his finish had the quality to beat David de Gea. 

"The first semblance of an opening he's had, and the ball is in the back of the net. What a finish, what quality!"

Daley Blind takes a corner, Chris Smalling gets a glancing header after losing Robert Huth and Wes Morgan knocks it out for a corner. I don't think Big Wes even knew where the ball was there, got a bit lucky - it could have ended up anywhere.

Blind takes the resulting corner but it's held by Kasper Schmichel.

Bastian Schweinsteiger's first-time shot from inside the box hits Wes Morgan on the head and Leicester clear.

There's not been much in this game so far, although the Red Devils have had 66.8% possession.

Ashley Young takes on a defender but then his left-footed cross is past everyone. No United player gambled on Young's success there...

"This is not the Manchester United of old, not like the setup I used to have to play against. Look at Ashley Young - a good player, but never a United-quality player in my opinion. 

"And look at today's bench. With the greatest of respect, I've never heard of some of them!"

Wayne Rooney forces a save from Kasper Schmeichel. And at the other end a cross comes in and Jamie Vardy is inches away from getting his head onto it.

A huge roar sweeps around the King Power Stadium every time Jamie Vardy gets on the ball as he goes in search of history.

He just worked himself a half-opening and despite being urged to shoot, laid the ball off. There must be an understandable temptation for Vardy to take any opportunity he gets given what he could achieve today - but he has proved himself to be a team player as well as goalscorer this season.

Leicester winger Riyad Mahrez knocks the ball around Ashley Young, who brings him down as he tries to get it on the other side.

It's a yellow card for the England international.

Oh oh. United give the ball straight to Jamie Vardy, with pretty much the whole Red Devils defence running to tackle him as if he was Lionel Messi. They succeed and get it out for a corner which comes to nothing.

That's the first time Vardy has had the ball around the box.

"As the game wears on Leicester will look to pick up the pace. And of course in the second half the Foxes really do look to pile it on."

Robert Huth heads the corner away and Leicester break...

But Daley Blind does well to end the threat on the half-way line.

United go forward again and Wayne Rooney kicks the ball straight to Kasper Schmeichel. I think it was a shot.

First signs of excitement in the game.

Chris Smalling tries to ping a Hollywood ball out from the back to Ashley Young on the left wing. But it's far too long and it's out for a throw-in.

United have a corner now though.
