Kelechi Iheanacho’s two goals weren’t enough to salvage a point for Leicester City as the team lost 3-2 to an impressive West Ham side in a five goals thriller match.
A first-half Jesse Lingard brace and an early second half goal by Jarrod Bowen gave Leicester a huge hill to climb.
Kelechi picked up the ball from Ricardo Pereira on the edge of the hosts’ box in the 70th minute, the striker smashed home from 25 yards out. The left-footed effort flashed past goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski who couldn’t keep it out.
He completed his brace in the 90th minute.
The Super Eagles forward has now scored seven goals in his last five Premier League games for the King Power Stadium outfit, as many as he managed in his previous 57 games in the competition combined.
