Sports Mole reviews the performance of the players in Bournemouth's 1-1 draw with Leicester City.

Bournemouth's fine start to the Premier League season continued as they drew 1-1 with Claudio Ranieri's Leicester City this afternoon.

Callum Wilson put this side ahead with a bicycle kick midway through the first half that is an early contender for goal of the season.

However, the Foxes refused to accept defeat, and salvaged a draw when Jamie Vardy struck from the penalty spot late on.

Here, Sports Mole looks at who stood out in this afternoon's clash at the Vitality Stadium.



Bournemouth

Goal

Artur Boruc: A typical performance from the Polish goalkeeper, who looked shaky at times but also made a couple of excellent saves. (6/10)

Defence

Simon Francis: Composed at the back and solid going forwards, but struggled to keep track of Jeffrey Schlupp late on. (6/10)

Steve Cook: Gave away the penalty that saw Leicester City level the game, but otherwise stood up to what was thrown at him. (6/10)

Tommy Elphick: Looked nervous on the ball, and was caught in possession on one or two occasions. (5/10)

Charlie Daniels: Excellent in the first half, frequently bursting up the left wing. Provided the cross for Wilson's goal, but was forced off with injury at half time. (7/10)

Midfield

Andrew Surman: Functional if uninspired performance from the former Southampton man. Kept the ball moving, but rarely attempted to pick out an incisive pass. (6/10)

Max Gradel: A lively performance, though not always with much in the way of end product, until he too was forced off with an injury. (6/10)

Lee Tomlin: Looked assured on his home debut for Eddie Howe's side. Could have had a penalty, and was the main link with Wilson up front. (7/10)

Matt Ritchie: Not his best day, but showed plenty of endeavour and made a couple of surging runs into Leicester territory. (6/10)

Eunan O'Kane: Booked after losing the ball and pulling his man back, and struggled at times. (5/10)

Attack

Callum Wilson: Another fine afternoon from the young striker. Scored a spectacular goal and worked the channels all afternoon. (7/10)

Substitutes

Tyrone Mings: Came on at half time for Daniels, but only lasted six minutes himself as he was stretchered off with a nasty looking leg injury. (6/10)

Adam Smith: Replaced Mings, and though he wasn't as attacking as Daniels, was solid enough at the back. (6/10)

Marc Pugh: Replaced the injured Gradel, but saw little of the ball as Leicester dominated late on. (5/10)




Leicester City

Goal

Kasper Schmeichel: Nothing he could do about Wilson's goal, but flapped at a Gradel free kick. (6/10)

Defence

Ritchie De Laet: Booked early on and could easily have seen a second yellow. Struggled to cope with the running of Wilson and Gradel. (5/10)

Wes Morgan: The better half of Leicester's centre-backs, and threatened in front of goal on a few occasions. (6/10)

Robert Huth: Could have been sent off for kicking the ball into Wilson's face, and struggled to keep up with the Cherries striker all afternoon. (5/10)

Jeffrey Schlupp: Marshelled Ritchie well and was rampant down the left wing in the final 15 minutes. (7/10)

Midfield

Daniel Drinkwater: Gave the ball away on occasion, but was always looking for the ball and worked hard. (6/10)

Andy King: Booked and struggled with the pace of the game. (5/10)

Marc Albrighton: Covered plenty of ground but lacked accuracy with his crossing. Replaced in the second half. (6/10)

Ngolo Kante: Got forward well and could have scored early on, but went missing for large chunks of the game. (6/10)

Riyad Mahrez: Started the game brightly but faded quickly and was replaced at half time.(5/10)

Attack

Jamie Vardy: It was a difficult afternoon for the Leicester striker as he was isolated from his teammates, but he never stopped running and deserved his goal for his effort alone. (7/10)

Substitutes

Shinji Okazaki: Came on at half time but failed to impress. Wasted his only chance by taking an extra, unnecessary touch. (5/10)

Joe Dodoo: Came on to rapturous applause from the Leicester fans, but failed to connect with the ball when presented with a good chance. (5/10)

Yohan Benalouane: Thrown on in the final minutes but didn't see the ball. (6/10)
