Continuation and end of the 1st day of the Premier League this Friday. On the Leicester pitch, the Foxes received Tottenham for a match that promised to be enticing. From the start, the Spurs put their mark on the game and quickly began to show themselves more and more threatening. At the half-hour mark, it was finally Pedro Porro who allowed the Londoners to take the lead. Found on a perfect cross from James Maddison, the Spanish right piston deceived Hermansen with a beautiful header (0-1, 29th).

And while Ange Postecoglou’s men were close to doubling the lead for a long time (33rd, 55th), Leicester got back into the game thanks to Jamie Vardy. The indefatigable Foxes legend found himself alone at the far post after a cross from Fatawu. A godsend for the 37-year-old striker who sent a powerful header into the empty net (1-1, 58th). The home team were even close to going ahead if it weren’t for a lack of precision from Wilfred Ndidi (67th) and without a great Vicario (71st). A bad evening for Tottenham, who were tied up for their first match this season, and who saw Rodrigo Bentancur leave on a stretcher after a head clash with Fatawu (75th).
