Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers was delighted with their win against Burnley.

City fell behind just after the first half's midway point, as former Fox Chris Wood nodded in Dwight McNeil's cross to give Sean Dyche's men a 1-0 lead, which looked to be intact heading into the break.

However, a fine piece of play from Harvey Barnes resulted in his delivery finding Jamie Vardy, whose header – his sixth goal in nine Premier League outings – levelled matters on the stroke of half-time. Youri Tielemans put the Foxes ahead in the 73rd minute.

“It's a very good three points without us being anywhere near our best," Rodgers told LCFC TV. “I thought that we started slowly and we weren't aggressive enough. Too many players probably felt that we could just play with the ball and not without the ball.

“At this level, you can't do that against a good team like Burnley who haven't been beaten away from home since the beginning of the season. You have to earn the right, and we didn't do that.

“Thankfully, we got a goal just before half-time. It was a great cross and wonderful leap by Jamie [Vardy] and finish. But we had to be more aggressive in the game, it was too timid. Like I say, we didn't want to do the other side of the game."
