Jamie Vardy was never going to go there quietly, right?
It would still be the 38 -year -old player in his first home game since he announced that he would leave Leicester City this summer after 13 years, to score the first goal in his team’s league at King Power Stadium since December.
Vardy may not have this zip of yesteryear, but he showed once again, if a premier league club needs an attacker this summer, he always has the quality to deliver the goods like his beautiful snapshot half -volle
Vardy only needs one in his last three games to reach 200 goals for the club.
It was a vintage Vardy afternoon. When referee David Webb fell 22 minutes after his first league start after a collision with Jordan Ayew, causing a period of almost 12 minutes before he was replaced by the fourth official, Vardy trotted towards Fallen Webb, resumed his whistle, put him on his lips and gave him a toot.
How much Leicester will miss, not only his goals, but for the joy and the feeling of childish misdeeds he always brings to the game even to twilight.
Joy was seriously lacking this season, for these two teams, who will spend next season in the championship.

The Foxes came out in the lead in a confrontation between the 19th and 20th placed in the Premier League
The saints only collected 11 points in their games at the top of the season
Vardy’s goal interrupted the resounding songs of “Sacke the Board” of the faithful at home to protest their second relegation in three seasons.
The supporters held a banner asking their owner and director of football “What is so funny? In response to the Sky Sports cameras that cut them laughing in the directors’ box five minutes before being officially relegated to their last game here against Liverpool.
He was then briefly shown on the big screens before being hastily killed.
They had to suspend their songs again on the half-time to applaud once again when Ayew doubled the Leicester’s advance, first pulling a free kick in the wall before forming the low rebound after Aaron Ramsdale.
Itinerant fans joined their own frustrations, telling their players that they were not able to wear the shirt “and directed the songs of` You do not know what you are doing at the acting boss Simon Rusk when he removed Mateus Fernandes, who had just seen a goal for offside, before the hour.
The saints remain on 11 points, always at the level of the Derby County as the lowest count in the history of the Premier League. With matches against Manchester City and Arsenal in their last three games, you feel that they have missed their best chance of exceeding it.
But it was, because it has been so often here for more than a decade, the Vardy Show. When he forced a ramsdale stop with a free kick of 25 yards, the interpretation of “Jamie Vardy was a party,” echoes around the ground.
When his number increased five minutes before the end, everyone inside the stadium got up to applaud him on the ground because they know that this party has only a few songs to play.
