3) Iheanacho proves a point yet again
Trending
Having been handed a 4-match ban for his antics against Chelsea, Sergio Aguero was dropped despite having a long domestic break ahead of him. But that presented second choice striker Kelechi Iheanacho yet another chance of breaking into the first team.
And the Nigerian didn’t need much time to prove his hunger, scoring as early as the eighth minute to grant City the equaliser. He could have had much more to his name but saw a couple of his shots wide of the post. With 13 goals in 18 starts for the Citizens, the young lad’s performances are prompting Guardiola to give him more opportunities. Now that he has got it, Kelechi should continue to be prolific front of goal as he faces the risk of seeing his place being taken by new Brazilian sensation Gabriel Jesus next month.
