Leicester City was denied one of the club’s most famous European wins as Victor’s brilliant brace earned Napoli a 2-2 draw at a pulsating King Power Stadium on Thursday evening.
FC Moscow also drew with Olympic Marshei. Brendan Rodgers sprung a few surprises with his team selection, leaving Jamie Vardy, Tielemans and James Maddison on the bench. But the Leicester boss appeared vindicated when his side took the lead early on through Perez volley from Harvey Barnes’ floated cross.
Napoli slowly took control of the game throughout and increasingly one-sided first-half. And the chances continued to flow for the visitors after the break despite Rodgers taking steps to change things by introducing Tielemans and Caglar.
