The FA Cup champion defeated the league champion at the Wembley Stadium on Saturday with Nigeria International netting the decider from the spot late in the game.
While reacting after the game, Iheanacho said he got mixed emotions but was happy to have scored the spot-kick.
"I've got mixed emotions, I'm grateful for getting the trophy today for my team. I'm really happy.
I think it's a penalty. He caught me, the referee saw it. He wanted us to play on so if we scored it would have been okay.
"I've been practicing penalties. I missed one last season so I've been practicing in pre-season. I had just one thing in my mind: just shoot at an angle and hit it hard, and that's what I did," he told ITV.
