Review:
Another early goal conceded due to another Pantilimon lack of thought, and another last minute equaliser. Matty Cash's injury time run gave us a penalty that Grabban missed but Soudani scored his second goal of the season on the rebound.
Forest Goals:
Matty Cash (10) - Shot from inside the area
Hillal Soudani (90) - Rebound from a saved penalty
