EPL: LEI 3 - 0 CRY - Iheanacho inspires Foxes to victory over Eagles
Kelechi Iheanacho had given the home side the lead, side-footing home a superb, low left-wing cross from Youri Tielemens to claim his second goal in as many games.
Jamie Vardy scored his 100th and 101st Premier League goals as Leicester boosted their hopes of achieving a top-four Premier League finish with victory over a lacklustre Crystal Palace.
The striker tapped home a Harvey Barnes cross from close range to bring up his top-flight century as the Foxes won for the first time since the restart.
Having failed to find the net in three games since the Premier League's resumption, Vardy then added a second, running clear of the Palace defence before chipping a neat finish past Vicente Guaita.

It is a much-needed win for City, who had seen their grip on a top-four spot weaken following two draws and a loss since the restart.
