PREMIER - Vardy scores own goal and redeems himself

On Saturday, Jamie Vardy scored an own goal but managed to salvage a draw for Leicester, delaying Burnley's first win of the season.

For the first time in his career, the striker placed the ball into his own net, but his brace sealed a 2-2 draw for the Foxes.

Prior to Vardy's goal with five minutes left, Burnley was on the verge of its first win against Leicester in 14 years, thanks to Maxwel Cornet's strike.

When Chris Wood headed in on stoppage time, he felt he had stolen the points, but VAR ruled the goal out for offside.

The Clarets, who impressed with their defensive tenacity, remain in the Premier League relegation zone, while the Foxes are in 12th place.
