Super Eagles stars Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho could not salvage a win or at least a point for Leicester City on Saturday in their 2-1 defeat to Everton at the King Power Stadium and were rated accordingly by the British media that followed the game.

Leicester Live wrote of Ndidi's contribution to his team's outing:

"Not his best game in possession but still battled."

The midfielder was handed a 6 out of 10 by the website dedicated to reports about the club.

For forward Kelechi Iheanacho, the assessment went thus:

"Had a few bright touches but didn't have a major impact on the game."

The former U-17 star was rated an impressive 8/10 by the website.

Interestingly Ndidi's midfield partnership with France international of Senegalese descent Nampalys Mendy was one of the bright spots in a disappointing match.

The Cunning Fox, a blog dedicated to Leicester City Football Club outlined the positives and negatives of the players' performances.

"Mendy and Ndidi are on the path of being a blistering partnership," the blog stated.

Ndidi's game saw him get a 7/10 while Iheanacho was below average with a 4.

Both Nigerians are expected to play key roles in Nigeria's 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Libya.

The Foxes' next league game is a clash against Arsenal after the international break.
