Jack Grealish scored a first Premier League goal in 16 months then dedicated it to his brother, Keelan, on the 25th anniversary of his passing in an emotional post-victory tribute.

The attacking midfielder’s strike came after only 70 seconds as Leicester were shredded by a Savinho dart down the right; the Brazilian found Grealish who beat Mads Hermansen to the goalkeeper’s right. Afterwards on Instagram, Grealish said: “With me always, especially this day – that was for you Keelan.”
