Iheanacho seals Shootout victory for Leicester City over Wolves
By Admin
Super Eagles forward Kelechi Iheanacho was the man on Tuesday night after scoring the winning penalty kick that gave the foxes a victory over fellow EPL campaigners Wolverhampton Wanderers.
On the night, Danny Ward sent Huddersfield into the Premier League with back-to-back shootout wins and he was at it again for Leicester.
Deputising for Kasper Schmeichel, the £12million summer signing from Liverpool made three superb penalty saves to knock out Wolves and take Leicester into the Carabao Cup fourth round.
Ward, the Wales international, pushed away spot-kicks from Romain Saiss, Diogo Jota and, spectacularly, Adama Traore to enable Kelechi Iheanacho to convert the winning penalty.
