Manchester City spent a whopping £147 million ($226.8 million USD) this summer, with over £100 million of that going towards attacking players. But while tied 0-0 against Crystal Palace, they brought on Kelechi Iheanacho, a Nigerian youth team star who spent last season tearing it up in City's academy. Kevin De Bruyne and other expensive stars couldn't find a goal, but Iheanacho did.

Congratulations to Iheanacho on his first senior goal, and good for him for breaking into the team and making the impact despite the team’s purchase of much more hyped prospects.
