Leicester City beat Southampton in a thrilling FA Cup semi-final by 1-0. The game was very balanced. Both the teams had almost the same possession in the game. There was only one shot on target by Leicester which gave them the lead over the Saints. Kalechi Iheanacho scored a rebound from the defender which made the whole difference.

Kalechi Iheanacho has been the talisman for Leicester city in front. Iheanacho was named Premier League Player Of The Month for March. The Nigerian International came out of the Manchester City Academy and stayed at his parent club for the first 2 seasons. He had a glorious first season with the Manchester Club, as he scored 14 goals in 35 appearances. Later he fell down the pecking order and left for Leicester in 2017.

Chelsea and Tuchel have beaten almost all the big shot coaches like Pep Guardiola, Carlo Ancelotti, Jurgen Klopp, Jose Mourinho, and Diego Simeone in the past 4 months.
