Olomola Scores Another Brace For Southampton U23 In Draw Against Leicester

Southampton U23s drew 2-2 with Leicester City in Premier League 2 at Staplewood on Monday, with Nigerian striker Olufela Olomola bagging a brace for the Saints. <br /><br />Olomola put Southampton in front in the eighth minute when he headed home Tyreke Johnson&rsquo;s cross, but the Foxes restored parity just before the interval.<br /><br />Shortly after the restart, the Nigerian would have restored his team&rsquo;s lead, only to be denied by the goalkeeper and his drive in the 65th minute was saved again by Max Bramley.<br /><br />On 85 minutes, Olomola grabbed his second goal of the evening, poking home an inviting cross from a teammate to take his tally in the league to four goals from five matches. <br /><br />The Arsenal product lasted the distance while England youth international of Nigerian descent Layton Ndukwu was on the bench for Leicester City. <br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br /><br />Photo Credit : saintsfc.co.uk <br />
