Charlton 1-1 Forest


Chris Cohen returned to action as Nottingham Forest made it eight games unbeaten with a 1-1 draw at Charlton this afternoon.
Ben Osborn gave Forest a first-half lead with a superb finish but Charlton's Simon Makienok levelled the scores after the break.

Second-half injury time proved a frantic affair, Nelson Oliveira squandering a golden opportunity to win it before a stunning save from Dorus de Vries denied Charlton, who had seen Tariq Holmes Dennis red-carded with 15 minutes to play, an unlikely winner.

Cohen came on as a late substitute to bring his lengthy lay-off to an end.

Dougie Freedman made six changes to the team that drew at Cardiff earlier this week as he opted for a 4-4-1-1 formation. Ryan Mendes was given a start in support of lone front man Oliveira, while Henri Lansbury, David Vaughan, Chris Burke and Osborn also came into the side.

Cohen took his place on the bench alongside Jamie Ward, Dexter Blackstock, Chris O'Grady, Robert Tesche and Oliver Burke.

It was a quiet start to the match, largely dominated by Forest until Charlton came within inches of taking a 26th-minute lead when Callum Harriott sent the ball skipping just wide of the post with a heavily deflected strike. The resultant corner saw Oliveira inadvertently nod the ball back into the danger area but Makienok misjudged his lunge and was unable to capitalise from six yards.

Forest were having the best of the play, however, and their dominance grew as the first half wore on. Moments after Oliveira had failed to latch on to an excellent Mendes cross, the pair exchanged neat passes and advanced into dangerous territory. Oliveira's cut back was just behind the unmarked Mendes, who had to turn his back to goal to gain control. That allowed the Charlton defence a couple of crucial seconds to block the winger's shot.

Two minutes later, Lansbury's incisive pass sent Burke towards the byline. The Scotsman stroked the ball across the face of goal but no-one was on hand to turn it home.

Another chance went begging shortly afterwards from an ingenious Forest corner. Mendes offered Lansbury the short option, dragging a Charlton marker with him, before bursting away into the space behind. Lansbury rolled the ball to him and, after entering the box, Mendes blasted it across goal, through everyone, and out for a throw-in.

It would have been a frustrated Forest dressing room had Freedman's men not gone into the break ahead - and Osborn was on hand to give his side the lead they deserved with a minute of normal time remaining. Mendes offloaded the ball to the Reds academy graduate, who took it on his weaker right foot and curled it beautifully into the top corner from the edge of the area.

Forest came out for the second half unchanged, while Addicks boss Karel Fraeye opted to send on Johann Berg Gudmundsson in place of El-Hadji Ba. The substitute forced Jack Hobbs into an important block within three minutes of the restart, winning a corner which Forest managed to deal with.

Charlton appeared rejuvenated, with Harriott continuing to look their biggest threat. On 55 minutes, the winger rode several challenges, doing well to stay on his feet, before curling the ball across goal and just wide from 20 yards.

The home side only had to wait another three minutes for their next chance when a looping header into the box saw the ball drop behind Hobbs and Matt Mills. Makienok got there first and, stretching, the giant front man managed to send the ball goalwards with the tip of his toe. Had he directed it towards either corner de Vries would have been stranded but it was straight at the keeper who managed to push it wide.

Forest were struggling to regain control of the match but Mendes' endeavour almost worked his side a second goal. The winger capitalised on some sloppy defending and almost snuck past Harry Lennon to go through one on one with Charlton keeper Stephen Henderson. Lennon recovered superbly to slide in and nick the ball away.

That was to be Mendes' last action as he was replaced by Tesche on the hour. In Mendes' absence, Lansbury took responsibility for providing some wing-wizardry. He skipped away from a challenge down the right and cut the ball back for Burke, who couldn't adjust his feet in time and got his shot all wrong.

Oliveira was the next man to have a go, taking control of the ball on the edge of Charlton's area. Isolated and knowing he had to go it alone, the forward twisted and turned before firing a tame left-footed effort at goal. Henderson made no mistake and within a minute, the keeper's side were level.

Harriott's precise, low cross left Forest's defence stranded and Makienok slid in to divert the ball into the bottom corner.

Freedman's next change saw Blackstock replace Burke, and three minutes later the visitors were handed a boost in their search for a winner.

Five minutes after going into the book for bringing down Osborn, Tareiq Holmes-Dennis, on for Johnnie Jackson, received his second yellow card for tugging back the same player and was dismissed.

The onus was now all on Forest, who had an excellent chance to take the lead after robbing Makienok of possession on the edge of the Charlton area. Tesche cut the ball back into the middle, where Oliveira saw his shot blocked. The ball came to Lansbury on his left foot but he didn't strike it cleanly, sending it harmlessly wide.

Lansbury had another chance on 85 minutes when Tesche won a free-kick in a dangerous position. The Forest captain could only strike the ball straight into the wall.

There were huge cheers from the away end shortly afterwards as Cohen came on to replace Hobbs. Mancienne shifted to centre back, with Cohen replacing him down the left.

Time was running out for Forest, who were left to rue Henderson's handling when he hung on to Oliveira's sweetly struck effort before four minutes were added at the end of the 90.

Oliveira had missed a golden opportunity in stoppage time at the Cardiff City Stadium - and he was to do so again this time around. He did brilliantly to outmuscle Naby Sarr in the area but didn't get his shot away early enough, allowing Charlton's defenders to make an imperative block.

And the home side came so close to winning the match at the death. Harriott was heavily involved once again, first bursting into the area and seeing his strike tipped over the bar by de Vries, then picking the ball up 25 yards out from the half-cleared corner. He steadied himself before striking it powerfully towards goal. De Vries made an exceptional one-handed save to preserve a point for his side.

Forest youngster Jordan Gabriel has signed a professional contract with the club.
The 17-year-old full back, who arrived at the Nigel Doughty Academy from Southend last February, has seen his potential recognised with a number of opportunities for the club’s Under 21s side this season.

He also played his part in December’s FA Youth Cup third-round success over Brighton and Hove Albion.

Coventry U21 - Nottingham Forest U21 2:6


Nottingham Forest Under 21s coach Jimmy Gilligan says he had to dish out some ‘home truths’ at half-time in this afternoon’s 6-2 win at Coventry City.

Goals from James Thorne, Jorge Grant, Ryan Yates, Gerry McDonagh, Deimantas Petravicius and Kasheme Walton helped Forest to a convincing victory – but Gilligan was far from pleased with his side at half-time.

He said: “We didn’t play well in the first half. We conceded twice from short corners, which was disappointing and something we have to work on.

“Energy, enthusiasm and desire are things I should never have to ask for. We went in at 2-2 and I told the players a few home truths about what Jake Wigley and I expect.

“The second half was pleasing. We looked energised and dictated the play.”

A day after signing his first professional contract, 17-year-old Jordan Gabriel continued his development with another start for the Under 21s.

Gilligan said: “It’s very pleasing for Jordan to have earned a professional contract but he needs to put that in the draw now and work hard on his defending.

“He has a great physique for a full back and is a very receptive learner. He has all the attributes to do well.”

Mills in the mix

Posted: Thu 07 Jan 2016
Author: Nick Richardson



Nottingham Forest defender Matt Mills has been nominated for December’s Sky Bet Championship Player of the Month award.

Mills enjoyed an excellent month at the heart of Forest’s back four, almost scoring a hat-trick of headers against Fulham but being cruelly denied by the woodwork.

The summer signing is up against Middlesbrough’s Adam Clayton, Sheffield Wednesday’s Fernando Forestieri and Derby’s Tom Ince, with the winner set to be announced tomorrow morning.

Forest 1-0 QPR


Posted: Sat 09 Jan 2016
Author: Nick Richardson



Oliver Burke provided a superb assist for Jamie Ward to score his first Nottingham Forest goal in a 1-0 Emirates FA Cup third-round win over QPR this afternoon.

The winger plucked the ball out of thin air and laid the goal on a plate for Ward to get his Reds tally started.

Forest were rarely troubled by their visitors but there was concern for Henri Lansbury who, shortly after coming on as a substitute, was stretchered off after an awkward fall.

The Reds will learn their fourth-round opponents in tomorrow night's draw.

Dougie Freedman handed Chris Cohen his first start since recovering from a serious knee injury, while Gary Gardner also started the match after arriving for a second spell on loan from Aston Villa.

Kelvin Wilson partnered Jack Hobbs in central defence with Michael Mancienne at right back, while Robert Tesche was given an opportunity to impress alongside Gardner in central midfield. Dexter Blackstock captained the side with Ward providing his support up front.

Freedman had plenty of options on the bench with Lansbury, Eric Lichaj, Ryan Mendes, Chris Burke, Tyler Walker and new signing Bojan Jokic available to him.

Forest took the lead with the first real opportunity of the half. Burke, who had already shown his threat down the right, superbly controlled a long ball near the touchline and burst towards goal, leaving QPR's defenders in his wake. He rolled the ball towards the far corner where Ward was on hand to slide in and give The Reds a 24th-minute lead.

It was proving to be a comfortable afternoon for Forest goalkeeper Dorus de Vries, who appeared decidedly unconcerned as Daniel Tozser's 34th-minute free-kick sailed wide of his goal.

The final action of the half saw Michael Doughty join Grant Hall in the book after he hauled back Burke as the Hoops desperately sought a way to halt the pacey wide man.

Freedman sent his side back out for the second half unchanged and within three minutes of the restart Wilson had to be on hand to block Jay Emmanuel-Thomas' goalbound shot, positioning himself well to divert the ball out for a corner with his head.

The Reds' first shot of the half came from Burke, who nudged the ball away from a QPR player in central midfield to open up space for a long-range shot. He could only send the ball high and wide.

QPR's response came from Doughty, who received the ball on the edge of the area courtesy of substitute Tjaronn Chery's cut back. Doughty took one touch before attempting to bend the ball into the top corner but he got his effort horribly wrong.

The second half was proving to be a more open affair and Ben Osborn nearly had an excellent assist with an hour on the clock. He did brilliantly to beat two QPR men to reach the byline, standing the ball up nicely in the middle. Hoops keeper Joe Lumley was first to it and Gardner's first competitive appearance of the season came to an end shortly afterwards when he was replaced by Lansbury.

It's often been the case this season that de Vries has had to pull off a spectacular save in a match when he's had little to do, and that trend continued as he did brilliantly to divert Gabriele Angella's powerful header over the bar following a 66th-minute corner.

Freedman's second change saw Cohen replaced by Lichaj at left back and the manager was forced into another substitution when Lansbury was stretchered off after falling awkwardly with 15 minutes to play. Jokic came on to make his debut as Lichaj switched to right back, with Mancienne filling in in central midfield.

Eight minutes were added on at the end of the match but Forest saw them out comfortably to progress to the fourth round.

Forest 1-1 Birmingham

Posted: Tue 12 Jan 2016
Author: Nick Richardson



Ten-man Nottingham Forest extended their unbeaten run to ten matches with a 1-1 draw against Birmingham at The City Ground this evening.

Headers from Birmingham's Jon Toral and Forest's Matt Mills meant the scores were locked level when David Vaughan was red-carded for a high foot with 16 minutes to play.

The Blues were unable to capitalise on their man advantage, however, and Forest's unbeaten run continues.

The rotation policy that had served Dougie Freedman well over the Christmas period continued as Mills, Eric Lichaj, Bojan Jokic, Ryan Mendes, David Vaughan, Nelson Oliveira and Chris O’Grady came into the starting line-up.

Gary Gardner was handed a space on the bench along with Oliver Burke, while Chris Cohen was rested.

The first half-chance of the game fell to the visitors on ten minutes. Jaques Maghoma got the better of Lichaj down the left and cut the ball back for Clayton Donaldson. The forward couldn't adjust his feet in time to take control and the chance was gone.

A minute later, Ben Osborn rattled the woodwork after seizing on a misplaced pass just outside the 'D'. He shifted the ball on to his left foot and saw his low shot cannon back off the post. Forest kept the move alive, Vaughan crossing the ball back into the middle where O'Grady met it with an excellent header. The ball had a lot of distance to cover, however, and Blues keeper Tomasz Kuszczak made a comfortable save.

The game then hit a lull before Birmingham took a 24th-minute lead. Paul Caddis' excellent cross was matched by the movement of Toral, who slipped through Forest's back line to score with a diving header.

Controversy abounded minutes later as Forest appealed for a handball by Kuszczak following a mix-up in Birmingham's defence. O'Grady pounced on possession outside the area, where he was confronted by Kuszczak. He tried to nudge the ball past the stopper but its path was blocked. Referee Mark Brown decided the keeper didn't use his hand and waved play on.

Forest's frustrations were eased shortly afterwards however as they levelled through Mills. The goal came after Oliveira was fouled in a good crossing position, which Vaughan was all too happy to take advantage of. The midfielder's whipped delivery was met thunderously by Mills' header, leaving Kuszczak with no chance.

It was turning into a feisty affair and Oliveira, later to be followed by Mendes, entered the referee's notebook following an aerial clash with Blues defender Paul Robinson.

As the second half progressed The Reds were looking the more likely team to take the lead. For a moment it seemed Tesche would deliver in spectacular fashion, receiving the ball in a tight situation, flicking it up for himself and sending a dipping volley towards goal. Kuszczak was untroubled, however.

Freedman's men had one last chance to return to the dressing room ahead when Vaughan was tripped in a dangerous shooting position. Osborn took responsibility for the free-kick, opting to go low and seeing the ball's path blocked by the wall.

There were no changes for either side at half-time and it was Forest who created the first opening of the second half. Neat interplay between Oliveira and Vaughan presented the latter with a chance to shoot from 20 yards. With his weaker right foot, Vaughan could only fire the ball high and wide.

A scare for Forest followed as Oliveira was penalised after a coming-together with Caddis. The referee opted against showing the striker a second yellow card, lecturing him instead. One man who did the enter the book was Toral, however, punished for a foul on Osborn shortly afterwards.

The home side had their hearts in their mouths once again just after the hour when Toral's corner picked out Michael Morrison unmarked at the back post six yards out. The Birmingham skipper looked certain to score with his powerful header but de Vries was on hand to make a crucial save.

Forest's response came from O'Grady, who received the ball on the left and cut into the area on his right foot. He fired the ball low towards the bottom corner but Kuszczak had his near post covered.

But those Forest nerves were jangling yet again with 21 minutes to play. Toral picked the ball up in space 25 yards out and struck it towards goal. It took a wicked deflection off Mills and struck the outside of the post on its way behind for a corner.

Freedman's first substitution followed as Jamie Ward replaced Oliveira, but the manager was forced into another change moments later after seeing his side reduced to ten men.

Referee Brown deemed Vaughan's high foot on Donaldson as a straight-red offence and the midfielder was dismissed. Freedman acted straight away by sending Gardner on for Mendes.

Forest were holding firm despite their man disadvantage, restricting Birmingham's opportunities to snatch a winner. Maikel Kieftenbeld's speculative curled effort was easily held by de Vries with seven minutes of normal time remaining.

The Reds almost took the lead in an unlikely fashion shortly afterwards. Ward's cross from the right nearly caught Kuszczak off guard but the keeper was able to scamper along his line and pluck the ball away from his top corner.

Freedman sent Burke on for O'Grady in the dying moments and, shortly before five minutes of added time were indicated, The Reds won a free-kick in a good crossing position. Osborn's delivery caused panic in the middle but the referee spotted an infringement and blew for a free-kick to the visitors.

The home side were refusing to crumble and Burke nearly gave them a dramatic winner when his pace put Birmingham to the sword on the counter attack. His attempted through ball was blocked but it came back to him on his left foot. The winger struck it powerfully, but wide, and the match ended 1-1.

Forest 3-0 Bolton

Posted: Sat 16 Jan 2016
Author: Nick Richardson

Nottingham Forest cruised to a comfortable 3-0 victory at home to Bolton Wanderers this afternoon.

The Reds had the game wrapped up within 16 minutes, capitalising on Wanderers keeper Ben Amos' 12th-minute red card by scoring the subsequent penalty through Nelson Oliveria.

Oliver Burke added a second four minutes later and Man of the Match Jamie Ward put the icing on the cake with an 83rd-minute strike.

Dougie Freedman made three changes to the side that started Tuesday night's 1-1 draw against Birmingham. In came Ward, Burke and Gary Gardner, with Chris O'Grady and Ryan Mendes dropping to the bench. David Vaughan began a three-match suspension after his dismissal against the Blues.

Tyler Walker and Chris Cohen were named among Forest's substitutes, while Liam Trotter started for Bolton after recently completing a loan spell at The City Ground.

It only took 12 minutes for the game to dramatically swing in Forest's favour. Ben Osborn intercepted an attempted pass and with his first touch sent the ball forward. Ward got to it first, nodding it beyond the last man and scampering through one-on-one with Amos. He took a heavy touch but had the pace to nudge the ball past the sprawling Amos, who felled him in the area and was shown a red card. Reserve keeper Paul Rachubka took to the field in place of unfortunate midfielder Josh Vela but there was nothing he could do to stop Oliveira's penalty, which was perfectly placed into the bottom-left corner.

Four minutes later it was 2-0. Ward was heavily involved once again, showing excellent feet to buy himself some space for a cross. He hung the ball up in the middle, allowing Burke the chance to power up his legs and outleap a Bolton defender to head it beyond Rachubka.

Bolton responded admirably, enjoying a neat spell of possession before Wellington Silva worked himself a shooting opportunity on the edge of Forest's area. He could only fire the ball over, however, and Forest were to see out the rest of the half comfortably.

Ward nearly had another assist to his name three minutes before the break, bursting away down the left before cutting the ball back for the onrushing Osborn in the area. Osborn took his shot first time, dragging the ball across goal and a yard wide of the post.

It was time for Ward to have an opportunity of his own as the game entered its 45th minute. Forest countered and Ward peeled away towards the right-hand side of the area. Osborn picked Ward out beautifully and he showed tremendous technique to volley the ball goalwards. Rachubka did well to push it away for a corner.

Gardner's subsequent delivery was dealt with but Ward picked up the scraps 35 yards out. With plenty of time on his hands the shot was certainly on, and he came within inches of claiming the goal he deserved as his dipping effort bounced off the bar on its way behind.

There was still time for Gardner to extend The Reds' lead before the break - he also tried his luck from range but Rachubka was able to make a comfortable save.

Forest came out for the second half unchanged and Ward had another chance to add his name to the scoresheet eight minutes after the restart. Neat interplay with Osborn saw him receive the ball eight yards from goal but he could only roll it wide of the far post.

Bottom-of-the-league Bolton were finding it almost impossible to offer any threat, while at the other end Ward's goal quest went on. Lichaj picked the forward out with a cross from the right and his header looped on to the roof of the net.

Freedman made his first change on 70 minutes, sending on Walker in place of Oliveira.

Ward was left frustrated yet again as the game entered its final stages. He took the ball past a number of Bolton players before striking the ball low towards the corner. Rachubka got down well to tip it wide. A chance presented itself for Gardner from the consequent corner but he saw his header blocked on the line.

On 83 minutes the moment finally came for Ward after he was released by Osborn down the left. Reaching the area and using the unmarked Walker as a decoy, Ward worked the ball on to his left foot and beat Rachubka for power. The ball crashed off the underside of the bar and over the line.

Lone front man Gary Madine had been forced to feed off the measliest of scraps all afternoon but offered his side's only notable shot on target shortly after his side went 3-0 down, turning on the edge of the area and firing the ball straight at Dorus de Vries.

Cohen and Mendes replaced Tesche and Burke as the clock ticked down and there was to be no further action as Forest made it 11 games unbeaten.

Nottingham Forest Under 18s assistant coach Gareth Holmes is encouraging supporters to make tomorrow night’s FA Youth Cup fourth-round match a special occasion for the players.
The Reds take on the Blues as Birmingham descend on The City Ground (kick-off 7pm).

And Holmes hopes for a healthy home crowd to help the players set up a potential home tie against Liverpool in the next round.

The coach told Forest Player HD: “The Youth Cup is a special night for any scholar. I think if you talk to any pro they will remember their Youth Cup days.

“I’d really encourage the fans to go and make that night special for the boys. They will then get a glimpse of the next batch that might come into the first team.

“I know the players will value that encouragement and support.”

Holmes is coming up against his former club having left Birmingham for Forest this summer.

He said: “Once Gary Brazil got in touch to give me the opportunity I knew I couldn’t say no.

“I know the area, I know the people and it’s a massive football club that you want to be part of. To have this chance is outstanding for me.

“I’ve been very impressed with the mentality of the boys - their desire to work hard.

“We talk a lot about taking on information and not having a fixed mind-set. We want the players to want to be better than they were yesterday.

“We’ve tried to do one or two things a little bit differently this year and I think we’ve reaped the rewards of that hard work and intensity on the field.”

Young Reds move into last 16 of FA Youth Cup


Gerry McDonagh scored the only goal as Nottingham Forest progressed to the last 16 of the FA Youth Cup with victory over Birmingham City at The City Ground this evening.

The Republic of Ireland youth international powered home a header with 12 minutes remaining to hand Forest the win which sets up a home tie against Cardiff City or Liverpool in the next round.

Forest had the better of the contest overall as Liam Adams, Fred Nielsen and Tom Gamblen went close, while Ronan Hale could’ve netted on a couple of occasions for the Blues.

But it was McDonagh who finally grabbed the goal Forest’s attacking endeavours deserved on 78 minutes making the most of a superb cross from the left.

Jack Lester’s side remained composed and cool in possession to see the game out with the defence staying strong against their fellow Professional Development League Two North opponents.

Middlesbrough 0-1 Forest

Posted: Sat 23 Jan 2016
Author: Nick Richardson




Nottingham Forest made it 12 games unbeaten with a 1-0 win away at league-leaders Middlesbrough.

Jamie Ward’s second-half goal, brilliantly assisted by Ben Osborn, was enough to earn Forest a memorable victory on an afternoon when they limited their hosts to very few opportunities.

Dougie Freedman selected Ward as his team’s lone striker, supported out wide by Osborn and Oliver Burke. Gary Gardner lined up alongside Robert Tesche in central midfield, while Michael Mancienne guarded the centre-back pairing of Matt Mills and Jack Hobbs.

Ryan Mendes, Nelson Oliveira, Dexter Blackstock and Chris O’Grady offered attacking outlets from the bench.

The first chance of the game fell to former Forest loanee Daniel Ayala, whose tame header from a corner dropped wide of Dorus de Vries’ post.

Forest were set up to play on the break and as a result the hosts were having most of the ball. The Reds’ first glimpse of goal came on 18 minutes when Ward robbed Boro centre back Fernando Amorebieta of possession and crossed the ball low into the area. Central midfielder Adam Clayton got back to slide in and divert it behind for a corner.

Ward and Amorebieta clashed again on 24 minutes and the Forest man entered the referee’s notebook, followed six minutes later by Eric Lichaj after he brought down George Friend.

Bookings were proving to be the most notable incidents in a half of limited opportunity for both sides. Clayton was the first Boro man to be punished by referee Frederick Graham after he hauled down Osborn in midfield.

The resultant free-kick presented Forest with what would be their best chance of the half. Gardner drifted the ball to the back post where Mills rose highest to head it low into the middle. Hobbs was the beneficiary but he couldn’t make proper contact with his shot and the chance was gone.

As half-time approached the hosts were left frustrated when Emilio N’Sue’s cross just evaded Christian Stuani in the area. Minutes later, the hobbling Friend was replaced by Tomas Kalas.

After such a disciplined first-half display, few observers would have predicted a Forest goal courtesy of right-back Lichaj. But that’s almost what they got on 41 minutes when the American advanced forward to receive a neat flick from Ward. Had his control been sharper Lichaj would have had a golden shooting opportunity but he took too long and a Boro defender came across to quell the danger.

Boro boss Aitor Karanka made his second change at half-time, sending on Adam Forshaw in place of Stewart Downing.

But it was Forest who began the half in the ascendancy. Ward tested the water with a shot from range that was easily dealt with by Dimi Konstantopoulos, but The Reds quickly regained possession and worked the ball to Osborn on the edge of the area. The midfielder got the ball out of his feet quickly and lashed it goalwards with his left foot. His shot crashed off the post and the hosts were able to clear.

It wasn’t long until Middlesbrough had the woodwork rattling at the other end. Lichaj brought down Forshaw, conceding a free-kick in a dangerous shooting position. With his back to goal, Albert Adomah rolled the ball to the nearby Grant Leadbitter, who flicked it up for himself and sent a dipping volley over the wall. The ball came back off the bar and the score remained 0-0.

Amorebieta was the next man in the book when he tripped Burke in full flight with almost an hour on the clock.

Boro were coming back into the game more as the half wore on, however, and they perhaps should have taken the lead on 67 minutes. Forest held their shape well to keep their hosts at bay until the home side worked the ball to Adomah on the left. He dinked the ball to the back post where Nsue ghosted in unmarked. Somehow, from around five yards, he headed it over.

And that missed chance proved to be even more damaging for the home side as they fell 1-0 behind moments later – and what a goal it was.

Ward’s deft touch sent Osborn away down the left. Burke, steaming into the area from the right, looked to be his only crossing option but Osborn had the vision to cut the ball back for Ward on the edge of the ‘D’. The former Derby man controlled it superbly and curled the ball beautifully into the bottom corner, giving Konstantopoulos no chance and sending 1100 Forest fans into delirium.

With 15 minutes remaining Bojan Jokic entered the book for a foul on Stuani. Freedman then made his first change, sending on Oliveira in place of Burke. Ward drifted over to the right but was soon replaced by Mendes.

Forest’s final change came on 89 minutes, Kelvin Wilson replacing Gary Gardner as Forest switched to five at the back.

But it could have been 2-0 as the clock hit 90, Oliveira’s shot from the edge of the area looping up off a Boro defender and, fortunately for the hosts, into the arms of Konstantopoulos.

With seconds of normal time remaining, Mendes broke away and threaded the ball through for Oliveira. The forward had the pace to beat his defender and, instead of taking the ball into the corner, he opted to shoot instead. His effort was saved but there was no time for the hosts to counter as the game ended 1-0 to Forest.
