Speaking in the post game presser, former Manchester City assistant coach, Maresca, was happy with the efforts of his winger.
“Abdul was on the other side and then in the second half, he was forward. They are small details. I’m happy for both of them (Fatawu and Stephy Mavididi).”
Issahaku has a goal and an assist in nine games this season in all competitions; Leicester takes on Sunderland on Tuesday, October 24.
Leicester leads the standings with 33 points after 12 games and holds a five point lead over second placed Ipswich Town. Ipswich has played a game fewer than Leicester.
