Iheanacho had been a sub in two of Leicester’s three league games this season, but he was handed a start in the League Cup game against Stockport County.

Iheanacho impresses on his first start for Leicester City

Foxes’ manager Brendan Rodgers played a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Iheanacho part of a three-man attack that played behind Patson Daka.

The Super Eagles star was lively for the whole 90 minutes, with two key passes and a pass accuracy of 85%. He also fired five shots off-target and won four duels.

However, despite the gap in quality between the two sides, Leicester needed a penalty to see off Stockport.

Aribo’s good form continues

In another Carabao Cup game, Joe Aribo came on to help Southampton beat Cambridge United. The Nigerian international, who has had a good start to life at St Mary’s, came on in the 66th minute for Mohamed Elyounoussi.

Aribo won two duels, completed a dribble and played one accurate long ball.

The Saints had no problem seeing off the League Two side. Southampton took the lead through the in-form Che Adams in the 16th minute.

The Scottish star doubled Southampton’s lead in the 55th minute before Dominic Ballard rounded up a comfortable win for the Premier League side two minutes from time.

Up next for Southampton is a Premier League clash against Manchester United.
