Leicester 3 Burnley 0

    Manager Sean Dyche would later reflect on “four minutes of madness” as the Algerian headed home a Christian Fuchs free kick and a Riyad Mahrez cross to leave the Clarets with a mountain to climb. 

    And the final nail in the coffin came late on when the exceptional Ben Mee unfortunately turned a Mahrez cross past Tom Heaton to complete the scoring. 

    It might have been a different story if the Clarets, with their own record signing Jeff Hendrick making a full Burnley and Premier League debut, had gone in level at half time following a confident first half display. 

    But once the Champions got their noses in front, it always looked a difficult task for Sean Dyche’s men – and so it proved! 

   Republic of Ireland midfielder Hendrick took his role in a five-man midfield, alongside Dean Marney and a slightly advanced Steven Defour.
