Riyad Mahrez praises Leicester City teammates after Stoke City comeback

Mahrez: "Most importantly, we did not lose"

Riyad Mahrez has praised the spirit at Leicester City after they once again came from behind to grab a point against Stoke City this afternoon.

Claudio Ranieri's side found themselves two goals down after 20 minutes, but goals from Mahrez and Jamie Vardy in the second half rescued one point.

"We have a good team spirit and players who fight," the Algerian winger told BBC Sport. "We scored two goals and could have scored more. The most important thing is the team.

"We can do better than the first half but most importantly we didn't lose.

"This season is good for me. But without my teammates I would not be able to do this."

Leicester's next match is at home to West Ham United in the League Cup third round on September 22.
