Three Foxes Feature On International Stage
- Patson Daka featured as Zambia were held to a 2-2 draw by Zimbabwe
- The friendly was settled by a shootout, won by Zimbabwe, with Daka netting his spot-kick
- Wout Faes featured in a 0-0 stalemate for Belgium at Republic of Ireland
- Jannik Vestergaard was also involved in a goalless draw between Denmark and Switzerland
The first of that trio of Leicester City stars, Daka, started for Zambia earlier in the day during a lively international friendly against Zimbabwe, who had Development Squad forward Tawanda Maswanhise among their substitutes.
Despite leading 2-0 through goals from Stoppila Sunzu and Clatous Chama after just 24 minutes at Bingu National Stadium, Zambia were denied victory after Macauley Bonne and then Walter Musona hit back for Zimbabwe. The friendly was settled by a penalty shootout and, while Daka netted his spot-kick, it ended in a 6-5 reverse for the Copper Bullets in Lilongwe.
Elsewhere on Saturday, Faes (Belgium) and Vestergaard (Denmark) delivered assured performances as both featured in 0-0 draws for their countries. Belgium were held by Republic of Ireland at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, while Denmark couldn't find a way past Switzerland on home soil.
Victor Kristiansen, on loan from City to Bologna, started for the Danes, while goalkeeper Mads Hermansen was an unused substitute.
