New kid on the block Kelechi Iheanacho has shared his thoughts and impressions on the Golden Eaglets 6 - 1 humiliation of Mexico in their opening Group F game at the Fifa Under 17s.
“First and foremost, I want to thank God for giving us victory today and for giving me the opportunity to score four the goals, said Kelechi who clocked 17 on October 3rd.
“Before the match, I specifically requested for two goals from God and after scoring the first two in the first half, I never knew God has better plans for us,” the youngster was quoted as saying by futaa.com.
Once again, Iheanacho has dedicated his four goals to his late mom, just as he did at the African Championship.
“Of course, I remember my mum before the start of the match but there is not I can do about her death again but I’m dedicating the goals to her memory as well as to my junior brother, Chibuike Iheanacho whom I believe would be a very great player in the future.”
Kelechi Iheanacho is one goal ahead of Brazilian striker Mosquito in the race for the top goal scorer.
