Ghanaian forward Abdul Fatawu Issahaku was named Leicester City’s Man of the Match after delivering an outstanding performance that helped his team pull off a remarkable comeback to secure a 3-2 victory against Kamaldeen Sulemana’s Southampton on Saturday.

Leicester began their comeback in the 64th minute when Facundo Buonanotte found the back of the net, thanks to a precise assist from Ghanaian winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku. In the 74th minute, Jamie Vardy converted a penalty to level the score.
It was Ayew who sealed the game with a 98th-minute strike, completing Leicester’s thrilling comeback.
