Latest Nottingham Forest news as Steve Cooper's Reds beat Aston Villa 2-0 at the City Ground
Nottingham Forest’s six-match winless run came to an end as goals from Ola Aina and Orel Mangala saw them beat Aston Villa 2-0 at the City Ground.
Forest still had some nervy moments as Villa looked to get back in the game. Vlachodimos thwarted Moussa Diaby, and Ibrahim Sangare cleared off the line from a corner, but Steve Cooper’s side saw the game out to claim all three points.Odysseas Vlachodimos: A big call by head coach Steve Cooper to change his goalkeeper, but the Greek responded with a very solid display to clinch a clean-sheet. Looked very confident and comfortable.
Harry Toffolo: Deserved his place back in the side and vindicated the manager’s decision by weighing in with a double assist. Two delightful balls in they were, too. Rating: 9/10 Morgan Gibbs-White: Wore the captain’s armband with pride and led by example with a passionate performance. Some really bright moments in a huge win. Rating: 8.5/10
