Vardy Puts Sports Science Aside, Drinks Red Bull Before Goal vs Tottenham: Video

• Jamie Vardy's carefree approach to life was on full display in Leicester City's opening game of the season
• The 37-year-old consumes an enormous amount of caffeine, which, he claims, helps him sprint over 90 minutes
• Most importantly, his second-half header gave Leicester a share of the spoils against Spurs at the King Power Stadium

Jamie Vardy made a memorable return to the Premier League by finding the back of the net as Leicester City secured a 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur on Monday night.

The veteran striker showcased his predatory instincts. He rose above the Spurs' defence to expertly nod in a precise cross from Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, equalising after Pedro Porro had put the visitors ahead.

Captaining the Foxes on the opening day of the season, Vardy's influence was felt throughout the 79 minutes he spent on the pitch, as noted by Livescore.
