Timothy Castagne heads Leicester ahead against Brentford
Leicester City finished eighth in the Premier League table last season, five places above Brentford

The match was played at the King Power Stadium and it was a 2-2 draw.

The only team not to have signed a player in the summer transfer window is the Foxes.

In the first half, Youri Tielemans hit the post before Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall doubled the lead 25 seconds into the second half.

Ivan Toney scored from close range after a move that started when the ball was thrown.

There was a chance for Toney to equalise when he headed the ball away from the other end.

Josh Dasilva struck an 86th-minute leveler after cutting inside on to his left foot, to give the Bees a point in the opening game of the season.

Leicester let two points slip

There is a lot of talent in this team and there have been suggestions that the transfer market may be cooling off.

Even though they have not spent a penny, the Foxes have lost a legend with the departure of their premier league and FA Cup winning keeper.

It will only increase calls for Brendan Rodgers to strengthen his squad before the 1 September deadline as a result of the way the game was played.

After Dewsbury-Hall's finish added to Castagne's opening goal, they looked like they were going to win.

By the end of the game, they were fortunate not to lose as they had a great start.

This was a chance for Rodgers to make a good start.

Between now and 1 September, it will feel like two points have been dropped, with matches to follow against the aforementioned teams.

Bees show fighting spirit

Their first season in England's top flight ended in 13th place, thanks to the signing of Christian Eriksen.

A large void has been left by his departure, but the team is still confident and believes in themselves.

Thomas Frank and his players will get a boost going into the rest of the season after the way they came back from a goal down to draw with the Foxes.

Brentford boss Thomas Frank celebrates with Josh Dasilva after the final whistle
Since the start of last season, only Liverpool (21) and Tottenham (17) have picked up more points from losing positions in the Premier League than Brentford (16)

Two debutants were in the starting line-up.

While Ben Mee was at fault for the second goal and replaced in the 59th minute, the performance of 20-year-old new signing from Bologna suggests he could be another shrewd signing for the Bees.

The Bees had prepared for next Saturday's visit of Manchester United and Eriksen with a spirited performance and Frank celebrated with Dasilva on the pitch in front of the travelling fans.
