James Tomkins 5, Wilfried Zaha 7; Harvey Barnes 7, Kelechi Iheanacho 4: Crystal Palace v Leicester City ratings

Moment of magic from Eagles attacker but Foxes earn late point at Selhurst Park

CRYSTAL PALACE RATINGS: Vicente Guaita - 7: Good one-handed penalty save from Iheanacho, although it was weak effort from the Foxes striker. Helpless when deflected Perez cross looped on to top of his crossbar. AFP

Nathaniel Clyne - 7: Former Liverpool and England full-back stuck to his task from start to finish against tricky opponents in Thomas and Barnes. Getty

Cheikhou Kouyate - 6: Unconventional at times but did what he needed to do in defence although would have been happy to be dealing with a Iheanacho firing blanks for most of the match rather than the deadly Vardy. EPA

James Tomkins - 5: Ominous start when skinned by Iheanacho after two minutes and the defender went on to concede an obvious penalty for foul on Thomas in first half. Would have been delighted to see spot-kick fluffed badly. Failed to close down Barnes quick enough before Foxes attacker grabbed equaliser. AFP

Tyrick Mitchell - 6: Dangerous cross from left in first few minutes nearly picked out Benteke. Close to giving away a second Palace penalty for Clumsy challenge on Iheanacho who was surging into box. Reuters

Jeffrey Schlupp - 6: Fine change of pace followed by cut-back cross to set-up chance for Townsend but teammate failed to hit target. Palace needed more of that but not forthcoming as winger had quiet game. AP

Luka Milivojevic - 5: Lucky not be booked, at least, for late challenge with shoulder that took out Choudhury in first half. Looked second best as Leicester dominated first half but improved slightly after break. AFP

Jairo Riedewald - 6: Struggled, along with Milivojevic, to get a grip on the midfield as Leicester controlled middle of park in first half. Like his Serbian terammate, was better in second half. AFP

Andros Townsend - 6: Was clearly disappointed with himself after failing to open scoring when he put left-footed finish wide from Schlupp cross. Excellent ball to Zaha for opening goal although some of free-kicks into box were awful and failed to get past first defender on several occasions. AP

Wilfried Zaha - 7: Relieved to see flag go up when he missed one-on-one chance with Schmeichel early on and seemed a frustrated figure in first half. Poor left-footed finish over the bar just after the break when well placed and the story of his night looked set. But produced one moment of magic and was brilliant for Palace goal. Produced lovely turn and pass for Townsend down wing before continuing run into box to volley home from tight angle after return cross from winger. Getty

Christian Benteke - 6: Headed half-chance over bar in first half but had received little in the way of service from his midfield. Bar that miss, never looked like scoring. Getty

SUBS: James McArthur – (on for Riedewald 74’) 6: Gave away dangerous free-kick right on edge of box in last minute for foul on Perez but Gray wasted chance. EPA

Jordan Ayew – (On for Schlupp 84’) N/A. AFP

LEICESTER RATINGS: Kasper Schmeichel - 6: Good stop after 10 minutes when Zaha was clean through although Eagles striker eventually flagged offside. Will not be happy to be beaten at near post by Zaha, although was tasty finish. Very little to do as Palace had one shot on target all game. Reuters

James Justin - 7: Beaten for pace by Schlupp at one point in first half but generally coped well with Palace opponent. Such a reliable player down the right for Brendan Rodgers’ side. EPA

Jonny Evans - 7: Little problems dealing with Benteke and even Zaha had been kept quiet before his moment of magic up front after break. Former Manchester United man produced some lovely crossfield balls from the back out to the right wing in second half. PA

Daniel Amartey - 7: Brilliant defending with perfectly timed challenge to stop Zaha shooting on goal after 20 minutes following Choudhury error. Assured performance from Ghanian. Getty

Luke Thomas - 6: Earned Foxes a penalty when his surging run was ended by Tomkins foul and teenager enjoyed decent game at left-back . Getty

Hamza Choudhury - 6: Solid if unspectacular return to side. Took nasty late challenge off Milivojevic without complaint. Loose back-pass almost allowed Zaha in on goal and needed to be rescued by teammate Amartey. Harsh booking for nothing challenge on Schlupp and was taken off just before the hour. AP

Nampalys Mendy - 7: Did well sitting alongside Choudhury in a midfield screening role in front of the defence. Always harrying the Palace midfield, tidy with the pass and a good stand-in for Wilfred Ndidi. Reuters

Ayoze Perez - 6: Looked to have picked up where he left off after fine cameo against Manchester United in previous game and looked lively at beginning. Saw deflected cross hit top of Palace bar. Tame free-kick straight at Guaita from 30-yards out. Disappeared in second half as Foxes lost all attacking momentum until last 10 minutes. AP

Dennis Praet - 6: Smashed chance wildly over bar after ball had rebounded off Palace bar. Great cross to Iheanacho at near post that the striker failed to finish. PA

Harvey Barnes - 7: Plenty of dangerous runs and some lovely crossfield passes as he pulled the strings in the opening 45 minutes – although did send a couple of wild strikes high and wide. Had been quiet in second half until finding himself some space on edge of box and firing home a low drive with seven minutes to go. Then fired just over minutes later. AP

Kelechi Iheanacho – 4: Lovely flick and turn to leave Tomkins for dead in first couple of minutes. Left embarrassed himself after 19 minutes when stuttered run-up on penalty chance resulted in shot that was far too close to Guaita who saved comfortably. Another chance went begging just before half-hour mark when Praet cross to near post hit his shoulder rather than head, flying wide. Lacks composure in front of goal. AFP

SUBS: Youri Tielemans – (On for Choudhury 57’) 5: Some really poor passes after coming on as Leicester lost their attacking rhythm. AFP

Jamie Vardy – (On for Praet 66’) 5: No chances for prolific striker to make mark and add to goals tally.

Demarai Gray – (On for Iheanacho 72’) 5: A rare appearance from the forgotten attacker making his first league appearance of the season. Free-kick in great position in last minute but failed to keep shot down. Getty

Leicester City moved up to second in the Premier League after a 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace when Harvey Barnes cancelled out a Wilfried Zaha goal at Selhurst Park on Monday.

Leicester will remain second overnight with Everton, level on points with them, not playing later on Monday after their home match against Manchester City was postponed following more positive Covid-19 cases at City.

The Foxes dominated the bulk of the game but failed to take their chances and missed a first-half penalty while key striker Jamie Vardy only came on as a second-half substitute.

Leicester could have taken an early lead after Luke Thomas was fouled in the box by James Tomkins but Kelechi Iheanacho's weak effort from the spot after a stuttering run-up was swatted away by goalkeeper Vicente Guaita.

Palace made it 1-0 just before the hour mark when Andros Townsend floated a cross to the far post for Zaha to volley home from an acute angle.

However, Barnes equalised when he scored his second goal in as many games, driving a low effort from the edge of the box past the outstretched arm of Guaita in the 83rd minute.
