Starting in Italy, Super Eagles winger Ademola Lookman is having his best season as a professional in terms of goals scored.

His brace against Spezia took his tally to eleven goals in all competitions - the first time he has managed double digits in a single season.
Villarreal have been knocked out of the Copa del Rey in the round of 16 after throwing away a two-goal lead to lose 3-2 to Real Madrid at Estadio de la Cerámica.
Super Eagles winger Samuel Chukwueze finished with aplomb into the top corner to make it 2-0 in the 42nd minute.
The 2015 U17 World Cup winner now has fifteen goal involvements this season (8 goals, 7 assists) from 27 all-competition appearances.
In the Egyptian Premier League, Austin Amutu came off the bench to score the game-winning goal as Al-Ittihad Al-Sakandary came from behind to beat National Bank of Egypt 3-2.
Amutu netted his third of the season in the 89th minute, nine minutes after entering the game as a substitute.
