Ghana winger Fatawu Issahaku has expressed his joy after scoring a belter in Leicester City’s home win over Ipswich Town in the English Championship on Saturday.
The Black Stars attacker stole the headlines at the weekend after scoring a 65-yard goal, as the Foxes cruised to a 3-1 victory at the King Power Stadium.
Issahaku’s strike overshadowed an early 30-yard opener from Bobby De Cordova-Reid, who continued his fine scoring form. Jordan Ayew added Leicester’s third early in the second half before Jens Cajuste pulled one back for Ipswich.
Speaking after the match, the former Sporting CP winger promised to score more goals to aid Leicester City’s Premier League promotion bid.
"Amazing, I feel so good about scoring that goal. I've been trying to get it, and I was so happy it went in, and I just feel happy. I hope [for] more goals and more wins so that we can get to where we want to be” he told Leicester TV.
The victory lifts Leicester to eighth place, three points off the Championship play-off positions, while reaffirming Fatawu’s growing influence in the team as one of their standout performers this season.
Issahaku has registered 10 goal contributions for Leicester City this season, scoring four and delivering six assists across the period.
