Ranieri "loved" Leicester's character in FA Cup clash

The Italian was pleased with the effort the Foxes showed in their draw with Derby and insists he isn't stressed about the difficult upcoming schedule

Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri “loved” the character his side showed as the Foxes came from behind to draw 2-2 at Derby in a thrilling FA Cup fourth round tie on Friday night.

The Premier League champions took the lead courtesy of Darren Bent’s comical own-goal, but the former England striker made amends shortly after as he netted an equaliser for the Rams before Craig Bryson added a second just before half-time.
