Ghana international Abdul Fatawu Issahaku has shared his excitement after scoring an incredible long-range goal in Leicester City’s victory against Ipswich Town.

Issahaku’s extraordinary long-range strike stole the headlines as Leicester City earned a crucial 3-1 victory over Ipswich Town on Saturday.

The Ghanaian winger produced a moment of rare brilliance, scoring from inside his own half to double Leicester’s lead shortly before the break.

His audacious effort, struck from nearly 65 metres, left goalkeeper Christian Walton stranded and ignited the King Power Stadium.

Issahaku’s strike overshadowed an early 30-yard opener from Bobby De Cordova-Reid, who continued his fine scoring form. Jordan Ayew added Leicester’s third early in the second half before Jens Cajuste pulled one back for Ipswich.

However, the Ghanaian international has expressed his joy following his stupendous strike in the match, while promising more goals.

"Amazing, I feel so good about scoring that goal. I've been trying to get it, and I was so happy it went in, and I just feel happy. I hope [for] more goals and more wins so that we can get to where we want to be”

The victory lifts Leicester to eighth place, three points off the Championship play-off positions, while reaffirming Fatawu’s growing influence in the team as one of their standout performers this season.

Issahaku has registered 10 goal contributions for Leicester City this season, scoring four and delivering six assists across the period.
