Jamie Vardy has broken Ruud van Nistelrooy’s Premier League record by scoring in an 11th consecutive top-flight game.
Vardy broke the record in the 24th minute of Leicester City’s match against Van Nistelrooy’s former club Manchester United to put his side 1-0 up in a top of the table clash.
The England striker was picked out by Christian Fuchs on a Foxes break and finished inside the penalty area.
Perfect striker's finish. Gets between defenders, peels into space with great timing. Never in doubt from there. #Vardy

Vardy has netted 13 goals on his current run and is the Premier League's top scorer so far this season with 14 goals overall.
He was playing non-league football as recently as the 2011-12 season, having worked his way up from the lower reaches of the English game to earn a £1 million move to Leicester in May 2012.
