Leicester Star Ndidi On GOTY Award : I Did Not Expect To Score Wonder Goal
Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has spoken of his happiness after winning Het Laatste Nieuws’ 2016 Goal of the Year award. <br /><br />The Nigeria international claimed the award for his brilliant half-volley from distance in Racing Genk’s 4-2 win over Club Brugge in April 2016, and he has admitted that he never knew the ball will end up in the back of the net.<br /><br /> “It was the goal against Club Brugge. We won 4-2 against the later champions. I still remember the crowd and the way I took the ball, ” Ndidi told Leicester’s official website. <br /><br />“I was a bit confused. I didn’t expect to score like that when I took the shot. I’ve scored a few goals so far in my career, a few nice ones too. <br /><br />“It comes gradually. As I grow into a game, I try to take my chances.” <br /><br />Ndidi is carving out a reputation for scoring from distance after opening his Foxes account with a 25-yard piledriver in their 3-1 win over Derby County in the Emirates FA Cup last month. <br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br /><br />Photo Credit : lcfc.com <br /><br /><br />
