Review
A much better perfomrance from us today, even though both the result and VAR weren't quite what we wanted. There was a lot of complaints about United's opener, coming from a corner awarded when the ball wasn't fully out. And going in a goal-down to United is never a good place to be in, we fought back immediately. Morgan Gibbs-White got the equalizer within a few minutes of the restart and then Nicola Savona got his first Forest goal two minutes later. United looked dangerous after that, but no-one saw Amad Diallo's volley from the edge of the area that flew past Selz for their equalizer. It was a fair result, but we need points as we're adrift of the relegation zone with still only one win so far in the League.
