Unlucky Nigeria Duo Hit Woodwork Three Times In Leicester City's Loss To Everton
Published: February 01, 2018
Super Eagles midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi was awarded a relatively low mark after a mixed fortune performance against Everton in their Premier League clash on Wednesday evening.
The 21-year old who made his 25th league appearance for the Foxes at Goodison Park rattled the crossbar with a decent header ten minutes into the game but failed to build on his early promises as the game wore on though he was on hand to force a penalty from Wayne Rooney which allowed Claude Puel's side to pull one of the goals back.
Leicester Mecury's Rob Tarner described his performance on the night as below par from what he has been churning out for the Foxes this season.
"Hit the bar early on but not as effective on the ball as in recent weeks", Tarner wrote on Leicester Mercury.
His compatriot, Kelechi Iheanacho who replaced Demarai Gray 15 minutes from time was equally less lucky as he hit the woodwork twice after coming on.
The six points out of ten he got alongside most of his teammates the likes of Jamie Vardy, Marc Albrighton, Shinji Okazaki and Harry Maguire was one of the least he has garnered this campaign.
Leicester would welcome Swansea to the King Power Stadium on Saturday when they would be looking to bounce back to winning ways.
