Ola Aina vindicates Thierry Henry, breezes past Kyle Walker effortlessly

Posted : 02 May 2024

Ola Aina, the Super Eagles defender, sparked discussions among football fans with his effortless dribble past England's Kyle Walker during a match between Nottingham Forest and Manchester City at the City Ground, where Guardiola's side secured a 2-0 victory.


The encounter saw Aina and Walker positioned on the same wing, with a video circulating afterward depicting the Nigerian defender skillfully navigating past Walker, drawing attention from media outlets and football enthusiasts alike.


This incident reminded fans of Manchester City's Champions League final triumph against Inter Milan, where Thierry Henry, a former Arsenal forward, was questioned about taking on Kyle Walker in his prime.


In response to Jack Grealish's query about challenging Walker from the left flank, Henry confidently asserted that he would do so "all day" in his prime, reflecting on his belief in his abilities as a top forward during his playing days.


Aina's successful maneuver against Walker in the recent match serves as a tangible example supporting Henry's assertion that he could outmaneuver a defender like Walker, reinforcing the notion that skill and experience can prevail over raw athleticism.


This display of skill by Aina comes on the heels of his impressive performance at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, where he showcased his talents for the Super Eagles, aiming to maintain his stellar form in upcoming matches against South Africa and Benin Republic scheduled for June.
