Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers has rued Kelechi Iheanacho's missed scoring opportunity in his side's 1-0 loss to Manchester City in the Premier League on Monday night.
On as a substitute in the 80th minute, the Nigeria international had a chance to level the game after he was played in through on goal but dragged his effort wide of the mark.
Speaking post-match, Rodgers said : ''We had probably the best chance in the game with young Kelechi [Iheanacho], which unfortunately he didn’t take.
''It was just one of those games, but I’m very proud of the team. I think the performances that we’re starting to see now, especially against the big teams, bodes well for our future.''
