UECL : Lookman shines off bench, Iheanacho starts as Leicester come from behind to beat PSV

Super Eagles winger Ademola Lookman played a key role as Leicester City booked their place in the semifinals of the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday evening after a 2-1 win over Dutch giants PSV at the Philips Stadion, Eindhoven.

Manager Brendan Rodgers started the same line-up as the first leg for the decisive Europa Conference League quarter-final tie at PSV Eindhoven which ended goalless.

Kelechi Iheanacho was in the starting lineup, the duo of Ademola Lookman and young goalkeeper Chituru Odunze were  named on the substitutes bench,while PSV's England U21 international of Nigerian descent Nonso Madueke missed out entirely due to fitness issues.

PSV in the 27th minute scored through Israel's Eran Zahavi which was his fourth in the UEFA Conference League this campaign.

Ademola Lookman came off the bench in place of Harvey Barnes at minute 46 while Iheanacho was substituted off in place of Ayoze Perez in the 65th minute.

Maddison equalised for the Foxes with 13 minutes left on the clock with a fantastic finish in the six yard box off a pass from Ayoze Perez.

Lookman provided a key pass as Ricardo Pereira grabbed the second Leicester goal in the 88th minute after Yvon Mvogo spilled Patson Daka's low shot.

PSV will face Ajax Amsterdam in the KNVB Cup final on Sunday, April 17.
