Ghana international Abdul Fatawu Issahaku scored his first goal for Leicester City in their Championship win on Saturday afternoon.
The winger played a key role in ensuring his side grabbed all three points against Swansea City away from home.
Swansea took the lead in the first half of the game with Matt Grimes netting in the 20th minute of the encounter.
However, the Foxes drew level as Jannik Vestergaard's 44th-minute goal served as the equaliser for the former Premier League champions.
The game headed into the break with no one in the lead after a goal apiece in the opening half.

But then stood up the Ghanaian, Fatawu Issahaku, who struck from the box a powerful shot, beating the goalkeeper to put Leicester ahead for the first time in the game.
Nigeria international Kelechi Iheanacho then wrapped up the victory with an additional goal in the 87th minute.
Issahaku has been on a good ride since arriving in Leicester during the summer on loan from Portuguese side Sporting.
