“I watched the FA Cup when I was little and now, I get the chance to play in the final. It’s really amazing, it’s a dream come true,” Iheanacho told Leicester Mercury.
“I didn’t expect the goal to come like it did, but we are in the final now, we are really happy, but we need to get back, work hard and hopefully win the final.”
Despite his scintillating form this season, the 24-year-old was quick to downplay the importance of his goals during the Foxes’ FA Cup run this season, insisting it has been a team effort since their third-round win over Stoke City.
”We did it together, we did it as a team,” he said. “Without the team, we could not do it, it is not a one man show.”
