Nigerian trio Kelechi Iheanacho, Wilfred Ndidi and Victor Moses battled for supremacy on Thursday night when Leicester City hosted Spartak Moscow in Europa League clash at the King Power Stadium.
Moses turned in a good performance and capped it with a goal as Leicester City came from behind to salvage a 1-1 draw in the Group C encounter.
The Brendan Rodgers side dominated the majority of game but it was Moses who opened the scoring in the second half.
In their first proper attack, the Winger fired the Russian side ahead 5 minutes into second half as he heads beyond the outreaching Kasper Schmeichel into the far corner.
Unfortunately for the 30-year-old, he went on to foul Ademola Lookman inside the box, but Jamie Vardy failed to convert the resulting penalty.
Seven minutes later, Daniel Amartey responded for the Foxes with a header as well from a corner kick to level the scores.
The hosts were unable to find a late winner and had to settle for a 1-1 draw in their fourth Europa League game.
Iheanacho featured for 90 minutes for the home side, while Ndidi came in as a 58th minute substitute after being out since September due to hamstring problem, but both failed to make any impact for the Premier League side.
Napoli maintain top of the group with seven points to their name, host Leicester in third with five points while Spartak sits bottom with just four points.
