Claudio Ranieri was delighted that his Leicester players responded from Jamie Vardy's red card to fight back for a priceless point in the Premier League title race during Sunday's 2-2 draw with West Ham.
Leicester went ahead at the King Power Stadium through a first-half Vardy strike, but the forward was shown a second booking for simulation after the interval.
West Ham rallied as substitute Andy Carroll scored from the penalty spot before Aaron Cresswell looked to have won the game with a stunning long-range strike, but Leonardo Ulloa scored a spot-kick for the Foxes to earn an important point as they look to stay ahead of Tottenham and Arsenal.
Ranieri acknowledged Vardy's red card had had a big impact on the game, telling Sky Sports: "It was a difficult match - very, very tough. We were lucky in the first minute when they had a chance that touched two posts.
"After, we scored a goal, played our football against a very good team.
"We lost a chance at the beginning of the second half when Okazaki made a cross and Vardy was very close to finishing the action.
"And then after, the sending-off changed the match."
On Moss' display, he diplomatically said: "I judge my players, not the referee. The referee watched this, it's okay.
"If some player doesn't play well, makes some mistakes, I speak with them and we try to improve their performance. But the referee is not my matter."
The Italian was delighted with the spirit shown by his players to salvage a point, saying: "Fantastic, fantastic. This is our soul.
"We play every match like this - blood, heart and soul. It's magnificent. I say 'thank you' to my players, the fans.
"We must believe every time and this point is very very important, psychologically. After 2-1, to go back in the last minute, it's very very important."
