Kelechi Iheanacho Benched As Man City Lose To Everton
Published: January 06, 2016
Kelechi Iheanacho was an unused substitute as Manchester City lost 2 - 1 to Everton in the semi - final , first - leg of the Capital One Cup on Wednesday night at Goodison Park.
England star Ross Barkley worked a 90 - minute shift in midfield for the Toffees and was involved in the opening goal scored by Ramiro Funes Mori, who tapped home a rebound after his shot was saved.
After 76 minutes, Jesus Navas restored parity for The Citizens but two minutes later Lukaku restored the home team’ s one - goal advantage.
Iheanacho has found game time difficult to come by in recent weeks, having played just one minute out of a possible 450 in City’s last five games across all competitions.
The 19 - year - old found the net against Hull City in the quarterfinals of the Capital One Cup and was also on target in the fourth round against Crystal Palace.
