Kelechi Iheanacho

An 89th penalty goal by Kelechi Iheanacho helped Leicester City to win the Community Shield in a keenly-contested game with Manchester City on Saturday.

The game was poised at 0-0 and looking to be decided on penalties.

But Nathan Ake fouled Daka in the area with only three minutes left in the second half.

Iheanacho stepped up and put his kick past Steffen in the City goal.

It was the first time in 50 years that the club won the trophy-traditionally the first title of every season.
