After dominating the early stages, Leicester forged ahead in the 21st minute.Wilfred Ndidi released Jamie Vardy after picking Calum Chambers' pocket in the middle of the park, the striker teeing up Tielemans, who took a touch before stroking into an empty net.Harvey Barnes then fired over, while James Maddison flashed wide from distance as the hosts threatened to run riot. Fulham caretaker boss Scott Parker's decision to replace Ryan Sessegnon with Ayite at the interval paid off within six minutes. After beating Ben Chilwell to Havard Nordtveit's long pass on the right touchline, the Togo international surged into the penalty area and beat Kasper Schmeichel with a deflected shot.A superb Rico save denied Barnes' whipped effort shortly after the hour mark before a full-stretch Schmeichel tipped Aleksandar Mitrovic's header past the post. The stage was then set for Vardy. The striker reached 100 goals in all competitions for the club with a typically direct run and unerring finish 12 minutes from time, while he added another to his impressive tally by scuffing home Barnes' pull back in the 86th minute.</blockquote>
