Ola Aina to Renew Nigerian Duel with Sanusi and Moffi in Europa League Quarter-Finals

Ola Aina to Renew Nigerian Duel with Sanusi and Moffi in Europa League Quarter-Finals — 1 of 6
1 / 6

Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina helped his side edge past Midtjylland on penalties to reach the Europa League quarter-finals. He now faces a familiar Super Eagles reunion in FC Porto’s backline. Porto boast two Nigerian internationals: full-back Zaidu Sanusi and forward Terem Moffi, who joined the Portuguese giants on loan in January. Both started in Porto’s convincing round-of-16 win over Stuttgart. Forest have juggled Premier League survival with Europa League ambitions and currently sit 17th after 30 games. A crucial clash against Tottenham this weekend could define their fight to avoid relegation. Under new boss Vítor Pereira, Forest have shown signs of revival. Aina will hope his solid defending can drive them past Porto and strengthen their push for top-flight safety.

Nottingham Forest scraping through on penalties again shows they still struggle to close out games without spot kicks.

I wouldn't assume a reunion means advantage—knowing teammates doesn't guarantee success in high-pressure knockout ties.

Porto's backline should mark Aina's tendencies earlier, tracking his overlaps to prevent dangerous crosses from the flank.
