Scores opener against Udinese Aina scored a goal off his lone shot, made four tackles (all won), five clearances and two interceptions and was shown a yellow card during Sunday's 2-1 win over Udinese.

Impact Aina scored his first goal of the season in the 14th minute, when he appeared unmarked on the right flank to open the scoring for Udinese. The full-back couldn't provide much more offensively but then he was almost flawless on defense, with season highs in tackles, clearances and interceptions. If Aina starts to rack up appearances in the scoresheet more frequently , his fantasy upside will certainly skyrocket.
