Iheanacho features as Man City tie Leicester City


Nigeria international, Kelechi Iheanacho was given a run – out in the closing stages of the Premier League tie between Leicester City and Manchester City at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday night.

The attacker replaced Three Lions star Raheem Sterling in the 89th minute; his 14th appearance for the Citizens in all competition this season.

The two goals Iheanacho has scored in the Premier League came in the 90th minute but the Flying Eagles star did not increase his goal haul, with the contest ending goalless.

Following the draw against the Foxes, Manchester City ended the calender year third on the table with 36 points amassed from 19 matches.
