Abdul Fatawu Issahaku was on the score sheet as Leicester City claimed a 3-1 victory away to Swansea City in the English Championship.
The 21-year-old winger produced a moment of brilliance in the 77th minute, curling a right-footed effort into the top corner to put Leicester back in front after Swansea had drawn level through Adam Idah’s penalty.
It was Fatawu’s third goal of the season, coming just months after his recovery from a long-term ACL injury.

He also came agonisingly close to a second goal, rattling the crossbar from distance minutes later.
Earlier, Jordan James opened the scoring for Leicester before Jannik Vestergaard wrapped up the result late on.
The win lifted the Foxes to third place, ending a frustrating run of four consecutive draws.
Fatawu’s resurgence comes at a perfect time for Ghana, who have included him in Otto Addo's 24-man squad for the October World Cup qualifiers against the Central African Republic and Comoros.
