Soccernet.ng highlights the most eye-catching performances of Nigerian footballers in Europe and beyond on Sunday, November 10, 2024.

England

Wilfred Ndidi missed one of Leicester City’s better chances as the Foxes stumbled to a 3-0 defeat to Manchester United in Ruud van Nistelrooy’s final match as the boss at Old Trafford.

Ola Aina and Taiwo Awoniyi both featured as Nottingham Forest threw away their early advantage to lose 3-1 against visiting Newcastle United.

In the Championship, Josh Maja headed home his 9th league goal of the campaign as West Brom returned to winning ways with a hard-fought 2-1 victory at Hull City.

 

Italy

Ademola Lookman had a goal disallowed while Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye failed to keep a clean sheet as Atalanta carved out a fine 2-1 Serie A victory over Udinese.

Germany

There was no victor, no vanquished between the Super Eagles duo of Frank Onyeka and Kevin Akpoguma as Augsburg and Hoffenheim settled for a goalless draw in the Bundesliga.

In the Regionalliga, Obed Ugondu netted the winning strike – his third goal of the season – that powered Rot-Weiß Erfurt to a come-from-behind 2-1 win at Luckenwalde.

Belgium

In the Belgian Jupiler League, Promise Akinpelu David stole the limelight from Tolu Arokodare as he scored twice to lift Union Saint-Gilloise to a convincing 4-0 victory against KRC Genk.

Jordan Torunarigha was excellent in defence for KAA Gent to inspire the club to a clean sheet and a 5-0 win over visiting Standard Liège.

Czech Republic

Quadri Adediran impressed as he scored two goals in a Czech Liga match for the first time but it was not enough to save České Budějovice from suffering a disappointing 5-2 defeat at Teplice.

Marvis Amadin Ogiomade, 24, assisted Adediran’s second goal in the encounter.

Following his strike in the 2-1 loss to Brest in the Champions League in midweek, Victor Olatunji opened the scoring for Sparta Prague in their 2-2 draw with Mladá Boleslav.

Igoh Ogbu shone in defence as Slavia Prague extended their lead at the top of the Czech Liga to eight points with a commanding 5-1 win at home to Karviná.

Denmark

In the Danish Kvindeliga, Joy Omewa delivered a woman-of-the-match display netting a hattrick as Fortuna Hjørring showed their superiority with a 5-2 win away to Kolding.

Omewa’s haul takes her tally for the season to 10 goals in 11 games, sending her top of the league’s goalscorer chart.

Hungary

Tosin Kehinde was the hero for Ferencváros as the former Man United starlet came off the bench to net an 85th-minute winner in a 1-0 triumph over Kecskemét.

Scotland

Cyriel Dessers’ sixth-minute strike was all Rangers needed to claim a slim 1-0 win over Hearts at the Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow.

Leon Balogun also made his eighth league appearance for Rangers in the encounter, helping Philippe Clement’s men to their first clean sheet in five games.

Turkey

Victor Osimhen scored two fine headers to help Galatasaray edge to a thrilling 3-2 win over Samsunspor inside the RAMS Park in İstanbul.

Only Besiktas striker Ciro Immobile (8 goals) and Fenerbahce’s Edin Džeko (7) have scored more goals than Osimhen in the Super Lig this season.

Elsewhere, Bright Osayi-Samuel was in his top element as Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce strolled to a 4-0 victory against Sivasspor to retain their second spot on the league table behind Galatasaray.

In Lig 1, Olanrewaju Kayode continued his excellent form as he smashed two crucial goals for Şanlıurfaspor in their 3-1 win over Gençlerbirliği.

Gençlerbirliği paraded Nigerian midfielder Oggenekaro Etebo but their cause was not helped by the dismissal of Mikail Okyar in the 56th minute when they were leading one-nil.

Kayode now boasts seven league goals in the Turkish second division, three fewer than top goalscorer Fatih Karagümrük’s Wesley.

United States

Asisat Oshoala and Bay FC have crashed out of the NWSL Championship playoffs in the quarterfinals after a 2-1 extra-time defeat to Washington Spirit.

Oshoala thought she had won the game for Bay FC when she broke the deadlock in the 85th minute but Spirit equalised four minutes later before Caprice Dydasco’s own goal in extra time proved decisive.
