Nigerian media deliver verdict on performance of Nottingham Forest star Ola Aina

Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina received praise from Nigerian media following his international performance for the Super Eagles in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier. Playing in his preferred right-back position, Aina helped Nigeria secure a 2-1 victory over Madagascar, earning a 6.5 out of 10 match rating from Afrik Foot.

Aina has faced challenges adapting to a wing-back role under manager Oliver Glasner at Nottingham Forest following the arrival of Daniel Munoz. Glasner faces tactical decisions regarding balancing his squad, with both Aina and Neco Williams competing for wing-back duties as Aina seeks to secure regular club minutes.
