Published on: 03 November 2024

Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espírito Santo has praised Ola Aina's spectacular strike in their 3-0 Premier League win over West Ham United at the City Ground, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

Aina's 78th-minute goal, his fourth in the Premier League, capped an impressive display by Forest.

"I think we have been mentioning many times the need for more goals from inside the team, which can come from set pieces," Espírito told the media.

"We had good situations... So we are delighted that almost every player starts to give the belief that he can help the team with goals. This is very positive and a beautiful goal from Ola Aina."

Aina's goal, drifting past markers before unleashing a magnificent effort into the top left corner, rounded up the scoring.

The Nigeria international, one of Forest's key players with 10 Premier League appearances this term, is reportedly in talks over a new four-year deal.
