They produced a dogged display against Porto on Tuesday, with Islam Slimani's 25th-minute header and a spirited rearguard action helping to procure a second successive win.
"I'm happy when I see my players play like tonight, with our spirit," said Ranieri. "I recognise this team when it plays together as a team. If we play in this way, I'm not surprised. I was surprised when we conceded three goals on a corner against United.
"My players were very concentrated; strong, attentive in every situation. We showed very good character, attitude and personality. Particularly in the last 10 minutes when Porto tried to equallise. We were very calm, very attentive and closed all the spaces," Ranieri added.
