Leicester City hero Iheanacho reveals admiration for FA Cup

Leicester City forward, Kelechi Iheanacho has said he loves playing in the Emirates FA Cup.

Iheanacho was the hero once again as the Foxes defeated League One club, Walsall 1-0 to secure a place in the fifth round of the competition.

The 26-year-old started the game on the bench and replaced Patson Daka in the 63rd minute.

Iheanacho fired home the winning goal five minutes later.

It was the Nigeria international’s 17th goal in 23 appearances in the competition.

“There is no difference in the way I approach FA Cup matches,” Iheanacho told the club’s official website.

Obviously, I love the competition, but there is no difference in terms of the way I approach games or how I play. It doesn’t affect me. Anytime I get my chance, I get in there and do my job.”
