Xherdan Shaqiri and substitute Peter Crouch scored equalisers as Stoke City battled to a 2-2 draw against Leicester City.
Stoke City and Leicester City shared a 2-2 draw at the bet365 Stadium for a third season in succession after veteran striker Peter Crouch came off the bench to salvage a point for the hosts.
Mark Hughes' men avoided a third defeat in four Premier League outings despite twice falling behind – Vicente Iborra's maiden Leicester goal breaking the deadlock before Riyad Mahrez found a second-half response to Xherdan Shaqiri's fine 39th-minute equaliser.
Claude Puel looked on course for two wins out of two at the start of his Leicester tenure but will have been frustrated to see the rangy Crouch steal into space at the near post to nod home Shaqiri's left-wing corner – the former England international's 15th top-flight goal as a substitute.
