The Foxes coped brilliantly with the challenge of playing an established Premier League team in temperatures that at times threatened to hit 30 degrees Celsius.

Riyad Mahrez cancelled out Jay Rodriguez’s 25-yard strike in the first period, before City went on to win 7-6 on penalties thanks to Ben Hamer’s spot kick save. 

Wilfred Ndidi told LCFC TV: "Everyone is feeling good. It was no doubt difficult, but that is the weather. It’s hard to get fresh air and everything is warm, but we are all good.

Hong Kong Stadium

The Foxes took on West Brom at the Hong Kong Stadium on Wednesday.

"It has gone so well because from Austria and coming here to Hong Kong, the fitness level is increasing and we can feel that."

On Thursday, first up for Craig Shakespeare’s men was a visit to the gym for some strength work in the afternoon, while a pool recovery session followed shortly after.
