Ranieri’s men had already secured top spot prior to their trip to Porto, and the Foxes manager made some changes to his side against the Portuguese giants.

However, he won’t have too many positives to take away from their display on Wednesday, as Porto clinched the runners-up spot with a 5-0 thumping of the Premier League champions.

Andre Silva, one of the hottest properties in Europe, netted a brace, and goals from Jesus Corona, Yacine Brahimi, and Diogo Jota condemned the visitors to a miserable evening, and one Ranieri is sure to want to forget.

It came at a bad time for Leicester, given their struggles in the Premier League, but it shouldn’t detract from an excellent campaign which saw them win four of their six group stage matches.
