Meanwhile, Simone Inzaghi’s Inter Milan are hoping to build on 22/23 final appearance, where they narrowly lost to Manchester City.

The Cottagers were looking to bounce back after a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Chelsea last weekend and did just that at Craven Cottage.

With a few games remaining, the Super Eagles star will be aiming to maintain his impressive form as Fulham continue their push for a top-half finish.

Despite opening the scoring in the derby, the Cottagers were undone by two late goals, including a stoppage-time strike that handed Chelsea all three points.

Adding two goals and one assist to his performance this season, Aina’s defensive consistency and attacking contributions have earned him widespread praise.

The Nigerian’s growing influence at Fulham this season has seen him evolve from a dependable squad player into a genuine match-winner.

Iwobi was deservedly named Man of the Match for his dazzling display. He featured for 82 minutes before being replaced by Kenny Tete, leaving the pitch to a rousing reception.

Despite their strong individual displays, Fulham will be frustrated with the result, knowing they came close to securing a valuable point.

Iwobi played a key role in Fulham’s opener, setting up Raul Jiménez in the 35th minute with a brilliant solo run from his own half down the right flank.

Super Eagles captain, William Troost-Ekong believes Alex Iwobi’s contributions to Nigerian football have cemented his legacy as one of the national team’s finest players.
