SUPER Eagles forward Kelechi Iheanacho was in great form Saturday afternoon as he helped Leicester City to a 4-2 win over Manchester United at the King Power Stadium.

Prior to the six-goal thriller, United had gone 29 matches unbeaten on away grounds in the Premier League and it seemed it will continue when Mason Greenwood fired home after a beautiful combination with Bruno Fernandes after the half-hour.

Iheanacho then dispossessed a sloppy Harry Maguire to set up Youri Tielemans for the equaliser.

Cegar Soyuncu stabbed home the ball after David Dea Gea instinctively kept out an initial shot which culminated in a corner kick.

Marcus Rashford returning from an injury setback restored parity as he finished a flowing counterattack with aplomb.
