Jamie Vardy has praised his side's resilience in their 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace this afternoon.

The Leicester City striker scored the only goal of the game as he netted in his seventh successive Premier League game.

"I've not had many chances in the game so to get the goal that counts it was really important," Vardy told BBC Sport.

"I've just been told I've joined an elite group. It's on to the next one, onto the training ground, cup in midweek and then we prepare for next week's fixture.

"You saw how we defended at the end, great resilience and the pizzas are on the gaffer."

The 1-0 victory sees Leicester move into fifth place in the Premier League.
