Leicester 3 Aston Villa 2: No goal, but Riyad Mahrez impresses yet again during incredible comeback, Jack Grealish goal stands out

ANALYSIS: Claudio Ranieri made an excellent tactical change at the break

STAR PLAYER

Riyad Mahrez. He was a constant thorn in Villa's side all afternoon with his pace, quick feet and trickery and was pivotal in dragging Leicester back from the brink. The Algeria international has been a joy to watch so far this season.

MOMENT OF THE MATCH

Jack Grealish's goal. What a moment for the young man. Took the chance with the composure of a seasoned pro - just three days after his 20th birthday. Perfect placement, textbook technique and sufficient power and fade. Shame for him that in the end it was not worth any points.

VIEW FROM THE BENCH

Gabriel Agbonlahor's inclusion was a bit of a surprise but presumably Tim Sherwood wanted to use his pace against Robert Huth and Wes Morgan. Behind him, Villa's attacking trio of Scott Sinclair, Grealish and Carles Gil rotated well and caused Leicester problems.

However, Claudio Ranieri replaced Shinji Okazaki with debutant Nathan Dyer at half-time, moving Mahrez into a more central position, and the Algerian was instrumental in the hosts rescuing their unbeaten start to the season.

MOAN OF THE MATCH

Mahrez again. The only blot on the 24-year-old's copybook when in the 82nd minute he appeared to roll on the floor in an attempt to get Jordan Amavi a second yellow card.
