Nigeria’s Kelechi Iheanacho continued his impressive pre-season form for Manchester City on Sunday night when he scored his second goal for Manchester City within four days as the English Premier League champions prepare for the new season.
Kelechi Iheanacho scores again for Manchester City
The 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup star player was a key player in his team’s humiliation of AC Milan in a 5-1 thrashing which seemingly proves that he deserves a work permit by the British High Commission for his special talent.
An electrifying performance from a second-string Manchester City side stunned AC Milan in the Guiness International Champions Cup clash in Pittsburgh.
Two quick goals from Stevan Jovetic and Scott Sinclair in the 12th and 14th minutes respectively gave helped the English champions stun the struggling Italian giants.
Jesus Navas scored with a spectacular overhead kick in the 23rd minute to extend City's lead before Iheanacho who scored on his debut against Kansas City added his name to the score sheet two minutes later.
The 17-year-old scored City's fourth of the evening as he picked the ball from the edge of the box, before shooting past a sea of Milan shirts as the ball found its way into Agazzi's goal.
Sulley Mutari pulled a goal back for Milan after Alex nodded a corner kick in his path for him to poke home. But Jovetic restored City's four goal lead with another goal in the 57th minute after a quick interchange of passes with Kolarov.
Kelechi Iheancho has now made a good case for himself to be included in Manchester City's squad for the new 2014/15 season with breath-taking performances so far in pre-season.
Manchester City's next clash is against fellow English Premier League club, Liverpool at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday.
