Iheanacho flying with Celtic … former Man City Forward enjoying life in Scotland

Kelechi Iheanacho was on the score sheet when Celtic secured a dramatic 3-2 victory over Motherwell in an exciting encounter of the Premier League Scottish.

Iheanacho opened the scoring in the 28th minute from the place, but Motherwell responded through Apostolos Stamatelopoulos, which he matched in the 41st minute.

Then, the Australian put his side ahead of the penalty point in the 55th minute, returning the game over his head.

Manager Celta Brendan Rodgers turned to his bank, and the substitute for Benjamin Nygren had an immediate impact, leveling the match in the 69th minute.

Just when it seemed that the points would be shared, Daizen Maeda joined with a winner of the detention time to send the local crowd to the celebration.

Iheanacho played for 78 minutes and now has three goals and an assistance in six appearances in all competitions for Celtic.

Against Motherwell, she completed eight passes, including two in the final third, and created three opportunities in an impressive attack exhibition.

Brendan Rodgers waits more

Despite the victory, Manager Brendan Rodgers admitted that his team is not yet working at his best.

“We are not close to our level, I can be clear about that,” said the coach.

However, he praised the spirit and determination of his players to ensure the result.

“Clearly, it is a very important victory for us. The players showed an incredible amount of heart. We show a strong mentality and competitive sand.

“Although we are not at our levels, we still had to win.”

Celtic now sits second in the Premier League Scottish with 17 points of seven games, two behind the Hearts leaders.

The next international break offers Iheanacho the opportunity to restart before Celtic returns to action against Dundee on October 19.
