It was a day to forget for Nigeria's Super Eagles duo of Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho as Leicester City lost to Wolverhampton Wanderer at the Molineux stadium on Saturday.

Midfielder Ndidi was on for full duration for Foxes but was cautioned in 58th minutes of the game.

It was the hosts who scored two quick goals in the first quarter of the game through Diogo Jota in the 4th minutes and Ryan Bennett in the 12th minutes of the game respectively.

The Foxes improved in the second stanza of the game and it paid off earlier as Demarai Gray halved the deficit in the 48th minutes before Conor Coady' own goal leveled the scores in the 52nd minutes.

Jota Diogo scored his brace in the 65th minutes and forward Kelechi Iheanacho was introduced in the 83rd minutes for Danny Simpson before Wes Morgan made 3-3 for the away side.

Just as it looks like the fiercely contested game will end in a draw Jota completed his hattrick in the 93rd minute to condemned Leicester City to a defeat.
