MATCH THREAD: " NOTTINGHAM FOREST V CARDIFF C " MATCH THREA

Mendez-Laing curled that shot in

Sammy Ameobi finds himself free in the gap between City’s midfield and defence. He tries a speculative effort from 25 yards out but blazes it over.

Its been virtually all Forest but City winning

Tomlin a nuisance again. Another meandering run sees him brought down near the corner of the box. Another dangerous area for a Bluebirds free-kick. Looks like Marlon Pack will take it.

Tomlin doing well

Pack whips a brilliant effort on goal, but Samba just gets there to tip it away. Good effort.

Another City free-kick, this time more central and this time it’s Tomlin. He clips it nicely but it just skips past the post this time.

Lee Peltier dinks in a lovely cross and Flint meets it at the far post. It looks to be falling to Tomlin but he just can’t get enough on his header.

Forest on the attack

Freekick Forest

Kicked way way over the bar

Madine down injured, having treatment

We've looked really good so far. Rode out the storm of the first ten minutes but taken control since the goal.

Agreed Forest had first 15mins, but Weve got better since our goal

Forest fashion another chance and once again it falls to that man Ameobi, but his radar is off once more. Drags it completely wide of the mark.

Ameobi has so far had a shocker of a game

A nice little period for Forest, this. Carvalho tees himself up for a volley from range but again doesn’t quite catch it and again Etheridge is not worked.

Gary Madine down once again after another knock. He is taking a battering but he is showing some real willing and doing some important work up top for the Bluebirds so far.

It’s City’s turn to defend once again, but Carvalho’s cross is a poor one and it trickles out for a goal kick.

Forest having the majority of the game,, but City still winning

Thankfully Forest final ball was awful

Forest having a lot of possession, every time City get it up field it comes straight back.

Nearly all Forest

Etheridge only had to make a few saves, as Forest final ball not good.


H/T 0-1

H/T 0-1

Their 1st shot on target was 40mins

Forest score most of their goals in the second half

Hopefully we can get an early 2nd goal

Forest attacking

Forest once again doing all the attacking, but Cardiff look dangerous on the counter attack

A dangerous free-kick from Lolly is punched away confidently by Etheridge. The shot comes back and is deflected for a corner, but Peltier clears with his head.

Its all Forest

Madine gets a clear shot at goal, rather taking a shot on, passes it to Hoilett, which was behind Hoilett

Madine NO CONFIEDENCE
