Iheanacho justified a rare start for Leicester with a Made-in-Nigeria strike after 34 minutes, when he superbly connected home a center by Super Eagles teammate Wilfred Ndidi to draw his club level against Burnley.
It was his second goal in his sixth start.
“It was a brilliant goal, he hit it true,” saluted Cottee.
