Leicester City has taken to social media to wax lyrically about their man of the moment (MOTM), Kelechi Iheanacho.
Leicester was on the verge of loosing some vital points against Crystal Palace at Filbert Way before the 24-year-old Nigerian scored a beauty to strengthen his club’s position in the Premier League.
Leicester conceded an early goal in the 12th minute courtesy of Wilfred Zaha, but Iheanacho inspired the comeback by assisting Castagne’s goal in the 50th minute. Red hot Iheanacho completed what he started by scoring a fantastic goal that earned them a well deserved 3 points.
