Leicester City vs Barcelona match report: Ahmed Musa shines for Foxes as Spanish champions win thriller in Stockholm







Leicester City may not have snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in Stockholm but two second-half goals from £16m signing Ahmed Musa narrowed the margin in a 4-2 defeat by Barcelona.
Two Munir El Haddadi strikes bookended a superb individual effort by Luis Suarez before the break in the Swedish capital as Musa, who joined from CSKA Moscow last month, excelled for the Foxes in the second period before Rafa Mujica’s late goal.
Claudio Ranieri, the Leicester manager, named a decidedly stronger side than the one who suffered a 4-0 reverse to Paris Saint-Germain in Los Angeles last weekend, handing a first appearance of the summer to Jamie Vardy and reuniting Wes Morgan with Robert Huth at the back.
