Leicester City fought back from one goal down to beat Everton 2-1 on Saturday to move into the FA Cup fourth round thanks to Ahmed Musa’s double.
Claudio Ranieri’s side fell behind to Romelu Lukaku’s strike after the break, but Musa who came off the bench as a first-half substitute made the most of his opportunity.
The Super Eagles vice captain scored twice in five minutes to notch his first goals since October and settle a hard-fought third-round tie at Goodison Park.
Musa’s heroics ended Leicester’s run of 10 away games without a win in all competitions and ensured the English champions avenged their Premier League defeat at Everton on Boxing Day.
England striker Jamie Vardy was missing for Leicester, but Ranieri gave a debut to Nigeria midfielder Wilfred Ndidi, who completed his £15 million move from Genk this week.
The 20-year-old was keen to make a positive first impression as he tried his luck with a long-range effort that was deflected to safety by the massed Everton defence.
