Iheanacho starts in Man City 1-0 victory over Sunderland



Kelechi Iheanacho was in the starting lineup when Manchester City defeated Sunderland 1-0 in the English Premier League on Tuesday night.

Manuel Pellegrini deemed the Nigerian fit for a starter’s shirt after his hat-trick against Aston Villa in an FA Cup tie at the weekend.

Iheanacho played for 46 minutes before he was substituted for Fernando.


Manchester City responded to the news of manager Manuel Pellegrini's summer departure with a hard-earned win over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.

Pellegrini - who will be replaced by Pep Guardiola - saw Sergio Aguero gather a deflected cross to coolly finish with the outside of his foot.

On Monday, Pellegrini included Iheanacho in the squad for the UEFA Champions League tie against Dynamo Kiev on February 24 in Ukraine.
