Iheanacho: Leicester City had hunger to win against Brighton and Hove Albion

Kelechi Iheanacho says Leicester City proved their hunger to win during Saturday’s Premier League outing against Brighton and Hove Albion.

Having been pegged back by Adam Lallana’s 10th minute strike, Brendan Rodgers’ team bounced back to record their 16th win of the 2020-21 campaign.

The Nigeria international levelled matters for the Foxes in the 62nd minute - lifting the ball past goalkeeper Robert Sanchez – after receiving a pass from Youri Tielemans.
