Leicester City stole a point away from home against Manchester United with their Nigerian export, Kelechi Iheanacho scoring their only goal on the night.
Iheanacho raised the curtains in the 63rd minute but had his goal short-lived with Manchester United midfielder, Fred leveling just three minutes later.
Both sides failed to provide the much-needed suckerpunch in the game as Manchester United lost vital points at home, and made their top four hopes even bleaker.
Iheanacho’s Nigerian compatriots, Wilfred Ndidi and Ademola Lookman played no part in the game as Ndidi is out till the end of the season and Lookman wasn’t listed at all.
Iheanacho completed 100% of his attempted dribbles and had 90% completion of his attempted 30 passes in the game.
He won two of his ten ground duels, two of his three aerial duels and lost possession eight times in the game.
The Nigerian had a lively evening which also saw him miss a big chance in the game. He has now scored three goals in the Premier League this season.
Zambian attacker, Patson Daka replaced Iheanacho in the 90th minute of the game.
