Leicester No2 Davies happy for Lookman after goal in Cup win

Leicester City assistant manager Chris Davies was delighted for Ademola Lookman after their Carabao Cup win against Millwall.

The on-loan winger struck in the 2-0 triumph.

"He's been outstanding in training, with his attitude, day-to-day around the place," Davies said. "He's been a joy to work with in the first few weeks and his quality has been very high. He impacted the game a lot when he came on at the weekend against Brighton.

"Today, he had to work hard, he had a good battle with the right wing-back in the first half. He stayed at it and, in the end, he gets his goal with a really instinctive finish because he follows in a rebound.

"It's something which is hard to teach a player to do, just to sense that moment to go and finish, so it's a very good day for him."
