Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers was delighted for Kelechi Iheanacho after Sunday's 5-0 win over Sheffield United.

The talented Nigerian scored a fantastic hat-trick at the King Power, his third successive game with goals to his name.

"[Iheanacho] was outstanding, not just in his goals, but his overall work-rate," Rodgers told reporters.

"He had a big responsibility today, in terms of dropping into the space, finding that pocket that was just on the back of the midfield, and I thought he did that very, very well.

"He's a great guy. He deserved the three goals. He had one or two other opportunities, but we're all delighted for him."
