Iheanacho Rated By Spanish Media

 

Nigeria forward Kelechi Iheanacho’s performance in Saturday’s Manchester derby at Old Trafford has been rated highly by Spanish sports newspapers Marca and Sport. Iheanacho who was selected in place of the suspended Sergio Aguero provided the assist for Kevin De Bryune for Manchester City’s first goal.

The 19yearold then got on the score sheet, finishing off De Bryune’s initial effort which came off the post to give City a 2-0 lead. He was however replaced by Fernando in the early part of the second half.

Marca awarded Iheanacho two stars for his effort and this was only bettered by Nicolas Otamendi, David Silva and Nolito who all had three stars.
