It's all over in Leicester as the spoils are shared. It's been a blistering game and the Foxes almost held on to win it, but Napoli deserved something out of it on the balance of play, and they got the draw thanks to the outstanding Victor Osimhen.
It's a second yellow for Ndidi and he will now miss the next game in this competition. Both fouls looked like bookings in truth, although it's a shame for the midfielder, who had been outstanding tonight.
Big chance for Politano, who meets a free-kick unmarked but can't keep his header down.
There will be FIVE minutes of added time. Plenty for one of these teams to snatch a win.
On comes Jamie Vardy as Brendan Rodgers rolls the dice.

GOOOAAALLL!!! Heartbreak for Leicester as Osimhen produces a peach of a header for his second goal of the game. 2-2!
Goal
V. Osimhen
Lookman does superbly to force a corner as he looks to nip on the end of a through-ball in the Napoli box. This would be a famous, famous win for the Foxes if they can hold on.
There's a pause while a couple of players receive treatment, which Leicester won't mind one bit. It breaks up Napoli's flow.
Another change for Leicester. Can Maddison help his side to a famous win?

Tielemans puts his side under pressure and Soyuncu lunges in as last man as he tries to rescue the situation. There was a covering defender, probably, and that saves the centre-back, who receives just a yellow card.
European football is delivering in style this week and this is a gem of a game to finish it off. This time it's Napoli who launch on a mistake and force a corner.
Tielemans goes down in the box looking for a penalty but there's very little in that and the appeals are waved away.
Another change for Leicester as Rodgers looks to keep the momentum going.

P. Daka
It’s an extremely open game now, with Leicester playing some glorious football in midfield on the break, but Napoli quite happy to allow the hosts to come out and leave space in behind.
GOOOAAALLL!!! Game on! Napoli pull one back in exquisite fashion. A lovely one-touch move is expertly finished by Osimhen, who dinks a sublime finish over the onrushing Schmeichel. 2-1!
Goal
V. Osimhen
GOOOAAALLL!!! There’s no doubt about this one. Just seconds after Napoli make a double change Leicester take advantage of a sloppy pass and Iheanacho feeds Barnes, who takes it onto his left and slams a shot into the far corner. 2-0!
Goal
H. Barnes
NO GOAL! Leicester think they’ve snaffled a second! Tielemans dinks the ball on to Daka just inside the box and he turns to hit it low and hard first time through the keeper. VAR checks for a very tight offside, and after an agonising wait the goal is chalked off.
A delightful chipped free-kick from Insigne catches Leicester napping, but nobody from Napoli can get on the end of it and it runs through to Schmeichel. Another let-off.
Vestergaard looks to halt a Napoli break and is booked after getting nowhere near the ball. He protests but that’s a yellow.
