It was a fully packed weekend of football, as clubs once again battled each other for supremacy, with Super Eagles players playing active roles in their respective clubs.
Here is how they performed at the weekend for their European clubs.
England
Kelechi Iheanacho, Wilfred Ndidi & Ahmed Musa, Leicester City
Leicester City booked a place in the fifth round of the FA Cup with a comprehensive 5-1 win against Peterborough, with Iheanacho netting a brace.
It was the second FA Cup game Iheanacho has netted twice, having done so in the third round reply against Fleetwood.
What a great performance by the whole team, very well deserved result. As always our fans were fantastic!!Pleased to add to my FA Cup tally #GodIsTheKindest!!? #FearlessFox pic.twitter.com/cRLxSQiMpg
— Kelechi Iheanacho (@67Kelechi) January 27, 2018
The 21-year-old has now been involved in 10goals in his last nine FA Cup matches (nine goals and one assist).
Also on target was Ndidi, who marked his return to the Foxes’ starting team with a goal, after watching the game against Fleetwood on the bench.
No, Musa was nowhere to be found, as usual, as rumours continue to fly that he could be on his way to Russia side, Zenit St. Petersburg on loan and sincerely, I hope that’s the case.
Ola Aina, Hull City
Fullback, Aina was on from start to finish as Hull City qualified for the next phase of the FA Cup following their 2-1 win against Nottingham Forest.
Aina put up a good performance for the Tigers, but was unable to stop them from conceding a goal.
Victor Moses, Chelsea
He may be an important part of the fabric at Chelsea, but Moses was made to watch from the bench as the Blues routed Newcastle United 3-0 to also book a place in the FA Cup fifth round at Stamford Bridge.
Germany
Leon Balogun, Mainz 05
For the second game in a row, Balogun was nowhere to be found as Mainz suffered a 2-0 loss at the BayArena against Bayer Leverkusen.
It’s been difficult fight for a place in the starting XI for the member of the ‘Oyibo Wall’ since his return from an injury.
Victor Oshimen, Wolfsburg
18-year-old Oshimen seems to be winning over those at German side, Wolfsburg, after he was handed a start in the derby against Hannover 96 on Sunday.
