This weekend saw Nigerian stars shine across Europe. In Scotland, Kelechi Iheanacho came off the bench to score twice and book Celtic’s place in the Scottish Cup final. In Spain, Ademola Lookman found the net in the Copa del Rey final, but Atletico Madrid fell to Real Sociedad on penalties. In England, Frank Onyeka helped Coventry City secure promotion to the Premier League, while Alex Iwobi was forced off with a hamstring injury in Fulham’s draw. Nathan Tella impressed for Bayer Leverkusen despite defeat, and Maduka Okoye missed out on a Serie A clean sheet after conceding late for Udinese.

I guess Iheanacho's late brace was the standout, though it felt long overdue.

Celtic needed a bench spark to reach the final, even with Iheanacho's goals it shows fragility against lesser teams.

Lookman's goal was great, but Atletico Madrid's defense seemed even more at fault in that final than Sociedad's attack.

Teams should balance attacking substitutions and defensive stability; depth like Celtic showed can decide tight cup runs next season.
