While Ndidi set up the equaliser scored by Iheanacho, Kasper Schmeichel made countless saves to keep his side in the game all through the night.

Iheanacho took to his social media handle to salute both players and hailed them as world class.

“Well done boys, we’ll take a point. Maestro Wilf @Ndidi25 ????????world class @kschmeichel1” he wrote on Twitter.

Meanwhile Wilfred Ndidi’s assist for Iheanacho in the game was his second in three away league games.

It was also his third goal contribution of the season meaning he has equalled his tally from last season in less than half the games.
