Nottingham Forest’s Ola Aina didn’t hold back in celebrating their dominant 3-0 victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday night. The Super Eagles defender, who has been shining for Forest this season, made headlines when his cross appeared to hit Wolves’ Rayan Ait-Nouri’s arm in the box, but no penalty was awarded after a VAR review. Nevertheless, Forest secured a convincing win with goals from Morgan Gibbs-White, Chris Wood, and Taiwo Awoniyi.
The victory propelled Forest to third place in the Premier League, tied with Arsenal and chasing the league leaders Liverpool by six points. Anthony Elanga played a pivotal role in Gibbs-White’s goal, showcasing excellent teamwork between the two players. After the game, Elanga shared a celebratory photo on Instagram, showing off his handshake celebration with Gibbs-White in front of Wolves fans.
Aina added to the post’s banter in the comment section, declaring, “My boys are hot,” with Callum Hudson-Odoi chiming in with fire emojis. Aina, aged 28, has been a key player in Forest’s success this season, participating in 20 Premier League matches and scoring two goals while impressing both defensively and offensively.
