 Top Interceptor, Most Shots, Most Aerial Duels Won : Leicester City's Ndidi Named MOTM
Wilfred Ndidi was the player with the most impressive individual performance as Leicester City were held to a goalless draw by Burnley at King Power Stadium on Saturday evening.

Today's game was the first time the Foxes failed to score in the Premier League this season.

Making his 12th successive start in the English topflight, the Nigeria international came close to breaking the deadlock on at least three occasions.

The Foxes number 25 headed over in the last action of the first half, his shot from distance was saved by goalkeeper Hart in the 58th minute and he saw his close range effort blocked five minutes later.

Ndidi topped the player ratings by Whoscored, scoring 7.97 out of 10 to place first ahead of Burnley duo Matthew Lowton and Charlie Taylor who got 7.58 and 7.48 respectively.

The 21-year-old had a total of five shots with two on target which was a game-high, made two key passes and won an astonishing ten aerial duels, another game-high.

The Nigerian defensive midfielder was the top interceptor with three and made two tackles over the course of ninety minutes.
