Vito Hammershoy-Mistrati equalised for the visitors on the stroke of half time following Ndidi’s opener but, all in all, Leicester were far superior and have put themselves in a strong position to progress to the last 16. Speaking to BT Sport after the match, Rodgers said: “We are disappointed with the goal we conceded right on half time, but I think we continued right on from our game with West Ham.

That’s our mantra, in terms of being positive with the ball and progressive. “I thought we started well in the first half and created numbers of opportunities in the first and second half. Their keeper has made some fantastic saves.

But I am delighted. It is obviously only the first game, but to get the four goals and create so much was very encouraging.
