Super Eagles midfield stabilizer, Wilfred Onyinye Ndidi was on target as Leicester leapt to third place in the Premier League with a performance that can only feed their ambitions to become a regular part of the elite.
Ricardo Pereira got them going with a superb goal in the first half before Isaac Hayden was sent off for Newcastle, who had already begun to crumble with 11 players.
Jamie Vardy scored twice in the second half, Wilfried Ndidi helped himself to one and the visitors’ haplessness was encapsulated by Paul Dummett inadvertently diverting a cross by Denis Praet into his own goal.
The goal by the former Genk enforcer is his second of the season after a significant first at Stamford Bridge few weeks back.
