Daka grabs brace for Leicester

Chipolopolo striker Patson Daka grabbed a brace when his English Championship side Leicester City forced a 2-2 stalemate against Preston North End on Saturday.
‎
‎Daka shined less than three days after starting from the bench in Zambia’s 5-0 loss to World champions Argentina in a friendly match in Buenos Aires.
‎
‎The former Power Dynamos striker registered his goals in the 4th and 81st minutes.
‎
‎According to BBC Sport, Daka’s double saw Leicester City salvage a point in their Championship relegation fight.
‎
‎Daka was gifted a fourth-minute opener when he pounced on Andrew Moran’s weak backpass and side-footed the ball home.
‎
‎Pol Valentin’s poor touch gave Daka a chance on the edge of the box and the Zambia forward fired into the top corner with nine minutes left.
‎
‎The point sees Preston slip to 15th place with six games to go – 13 points above the drop zone and 14 off the play-off places.
