Manchester City young gun Kelechi Iheanacho scored an absolute stunner for Nigeria in an important AFCON qualifier.

Nigeria were held well by Tanzania for the large majority of the match, until the 19-year-old struck a rasping left-footed drive into the top left-hand corner of the net from 25 yards.

Iheanacho’s blistering strike was enough to separate the sides and hand Nigeria a priceless 1-0 victory t0 kick-start their AFCON qualifying campaign.

Manchester City will be delighted to see the youngster in red-hot form after the club learned on Friday that Sergio Aguero will miss the Manchester derby who received a three-game ban for elbowing West Ham defender Winston Reid.

City manager Pep Guardiola said post-match: “Hopefully nothing happened and believe me I didn’t see it, but if it happens we accept it and adapt.”

Now that Aguero’s potential ban has now become a distinct reality he will have to adapt and Iheanacho could be the perfect man to lead the line in an engrossing Manchester derby next Saturday.
