Jamie Vardy’s first Premier League goals since December 10 and Danny Drinkwater’s sensational volley handed the stuttering champions their first victory since New Year’s Eve, as interim boss Craig Shakespeare got his tenure off to a winning start.
It was a much-improved display from the Foxes under caretaker boss Shakespeare, who took over after the departure of the man who led them to last season’s remarkable title triumph.
The victory moves Leicester up to 15th on the Premier League table, easing their relegation fears.
After the match, Shakespeare revealed that his players were determined to step their game.
On his part, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admitted that his team performed below their best.
