In competitive action for the first time in 26/27, the young Foxes headed up to Rockliffe Park for a meeting with the Teesside club which saw City take the lead 13 minutes in, through James Quinn.

A Lucca Kakai penalty levelled up the scores on the half-hour mark, but Leicester regained an advantage shortly after half-time courtesy of substitute Luqman Aideed's goal, making an immediate impact for the visiting Foxes.

Finlay Turner equalised once again for Boro with just under 10 minutes to play, rescuing a point for the hosts in an entertaining season opener.

Next up in the league for City's youngsters is a first home fixture against another North East opponent, Newcastle United, set to face the Magpies at LCFC Training Ground on Saturday 5 September (1pm BST kick-off).

The details

City: Lawrence, Jacklin, Simons (c), Dignum, Nbatumbu, Manyumba, Turrell, Szembell, Quinn (Owusu 59'), Holmes (Aideed 45'), Fletcher.

Subs not used: Shaw, Govan, Machaka.

Goals: Quinn 13', Aideed 48'.
