The English FA via its official website has showered Nigeria international Wilfred Ndidi with praise after scoring for Leicester City in their 3-1 win versus Derby County in the Emirates FA Cup on Wednesday. <br /><br />The Foxes manager Claudio Ranieri made several changes to his side, one of which saw his number 25 drop to the bench,&nbsp; ahead of the crucial Premier League clash against Swansea City on Sunday.<br /><br />With the scoreboard reading 1-1, Ndidi came off the bench in the 91st minute, before notching his first goal for the club he joined in January three minutes later with a stunning 25-yard shot that beat goalkeeper Mitchell.<br /><br />In its report of the match, the English FA stated : &ldquo;Yet just four minutes after coming off the bench, Ndidi proved the Foxes hero, ghosting his way through to unleash a fantastic strike in off the post, while Mitchell had to have his wits about him to prevent a second for King&rdquo;.<br /><br />The 20-year-old Ndidi penned a five-and-a-half-year contract with Leicester City, setting a Nigerian transfer record for Belgian-based players in the process. <br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br /><br />Photo Credit : lcfc.com<br />
