Ndidi on Target as Leicester Cling to Top of Championship

Super Eagles midfield enforcer, Wilfred Ndidi, was on target as Leicester City remain on top of the second tier Championship league table in England.

Stephy Mavididi  who scored twice in the encounter, opened the scoring from the penalty spot after 14 minutes before the Foxes scored three goals in a scintillating seven-minute spell after the break to take the game out of Plymouth Argyle’s reach at 4-0.

Patson Daka doubled Leicester’s lead with a cool finish after 49 minutes before Mavididi drilled home his second of the game just three minutes later.

Nigeria international Ndidi completed the scoring in the 55th minute, finishing in off a post from Daka’s pass to ensure the Foxes remain one point clear at the top of the table.

Plymouth in contrast are winless in 10 league games on the road this season.

The game burst into life when Mavididi went to ground in the box under a challenge from Julio Pleguezuelo before stepping up to roll the resulting penalty into the bottom left corner.
