Leicester boss reveals what he did to beat Arsenal

Brendan Rodgers has revealed how Leicester set-up to exploit Arsenal’s new set-up.

Jamie Vardy came off the bench to secure Leicester City’s first-ever Premier League away victory against Arsenal as they won 1-0 at Emirates Stadium.

Vardy was a 60th-minute substitute after returning from injury, and with 10 minutes left he headed in from a cross by Cengiz Under after the Turkish midfielder was played through by Youri Tielemans.

Rodgers told BBC Sport: “No, I think it was obviously a different set-up [from Arsenal] but how our organization was, it was able to cope.

“It was just a few little changes, Xhaka coming out to the side meant that Dennis [Praet] could then press him instead of having to go on to the full-back, so that was just about detail.

“But apart from that it was about closing the lines, making sure our concentration was good, and then when we had the ball looking to play through.”
