“I Always Feel Great to Come In and Help the Team” Iheanacho Reacts After Match Winning Goal for Celtic

Kelechi Iheanacho expressed his delight after coming off the bench to score the decisive goal for Celtic in their 2-1 victory over Hibernian.

The Nigerian forward once again made a big impact, delivering when it mattered most to secure all three points for his side in a closely contested match.

Speaking after the game, Iheanacho shared his satisfaction with helping the team:

“I always feel great to come in and help the team to get the win, so I’m happy today. The whole team is happy, and especially the fans.

'It’s really important to stay patient, especially when you’re playing against 10 men.'

"It’s really difficult because they sit back and wait for you to come, so you need patience to move them from side to side to create spaces, and, at the end, we got our reward.

“In the box you need to be composed but it was a difficult finish, to be fair. I wanted to head it at first but I had a second touch to chest it and then the guys started rushing out and I just had to get it on target and see what happened.

“I’m happy that the fans are loving every moment of it, and I’m enjoying it.

"We just need to focus on the rest of the games and do the job we need to do and at the end, we’ll get the trophy hopefully.”
