On Saturday lunchtime, Leicester City visited Kassam Stadium for a Championship fixture. In truth, the East Midlands team were expected to win by pundits, supporters and writers. Though a silly and costly error undoubtedly made the trip to Oxfordshire much harder for the travelling Foxes. Marti Cifuentes is nearing his best lineup now, although that still didn't help he and his side beat the 22nd placed outfit in England's tier two.
Did any of the LCFC players stand out for the right, or wrong, reasons? Which stars and backup personnel let the XI down or helped gain a potentially valuable point? Could the former Queens Park Rangers head coach have done anything differently? Possibly not fielding the troublesome debutant, for example. Here are the King Power club's winners and losers from the U's stalemate.
Oh dear
If you didn't see the result from yesterday, it was 2-2 at the final whistle. That result ultimately means two dropped points for City, considering the gulf in class between the two clubs. But it could have all been so different - couldn’t it, Aaron Ramsey?
On only 24 minutes (I know, right?!), Ramsey was dismissed for a needless, high and definitely dangerous challenge. Jordan Blackwell of Leicester Mercury labelled the early and impactful red card as "justified".
I'll be as honest with the Blue Army fan base, as I always am: I believe the Burnley loanee really let the team down at the weekend. That sentiment probably goes without saying, doesn't it? I know he was eager to impress; hopefully the incident was a learning curve.

Meanwhile, certain teammates didn't perform well either. Jakub Stolarczyk was given a five rating. While Boubakary Soumare got a woeful four.
"Ricardo Pereira: He helped turn the game around with his technical quality, his movement and finish superb. He carried the ball out from the back a few times too. 7"Leicester Mercury
Ramsey was awarded three; Oliver Skipp and Stephy Mavididi respective fives. However, Jordan Ayew was the Player of the Match with eight.
"Jordan James: He got in Skipp’s way in the box late on and he knew it, putting his hands to his head. But he looked confident in possession and produced one excellent challenge in his own area. 5"
