It was a mixed feeling for Nigeria’s Super Eagles defender Zaidu Sanusi as he sustained an injury in FC Porto’s victory over Atletico Madrid.
The win catapulted the Portuguese side to the top of the table with 12 points from 6 matches with the Belgium Jupiler league side Club Brugge in the second position.
Zaidu started the game but has to be subbed off in the 53rd minute after he sustained and Brazilian Wendell replaced him.
Taremi and Estaquo put the host ahead before the half time before an own goal from Porto defender Marcano reduced the tally for Atletico Madrid.
Zaidu is among the players expected to be invited for the upcoming international friendly against Costa Rica and Portugal later this month
