What changed
Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman and the other Nigerian players featured in the UEFA Champions League opened the competition without a win. The opening matchday is over, but the tournament still has subsequent matchdays to come.
Why it matters
A winless start leaves Nigeria’s leading players with ground to make up in Europe’s biggest club competition. Osimhen and Lookman are the names at the front of that effort, but the first round offers no final verdict: the next matches will decide whether this becomes a sluggish beginning or merely an unremarkable one.
