Kelechi Iheanacho scores late winner on Celtic debut

Kelechi Iheanacho made a dream start to life at Celtic as he scored the winning goal in their 2-1 victory over Kilmarnock on Sunday.

The Nigerian striker, who joined the Scottish champions on a free transfer two weeks ago, started the game from the bench.

Celtic went ahead early in the second half through Daizen Maeda, who headed home after a fine cross from Marcelo Saracchi.

Kilmarnock equalised seven minutes before full time when David Watson scored with a header.

Iheanacho, who replaced Maeda with 20 minutes left, sealed the win for Brendan Rodgers’ side by converting a penalty in stoppage time.
