Nottingham Forest displayed a commanding performance to secure a vital win over Fulham at the City Ground, boosting their chances of Premier League survival.
The home side got off to a flying start, with Callum Hudson-Odoi opening the scoring after just nine minutes with a clinical finish. Chris Wood doubled Forest’s lead with a spectacular strike from distance, highlighting his impressive goal-scoring form. Morgan Gibbs-White then added a third goal with a well-placed shot into the bottom corner, giving Forest a comfortable lead going into halftime.
Although Fulham mounted a spirited comeback in the second half, pulling a goal back early on through Tosin Adarabioyo’s header, Forest remained resolute in defense. Despite chances at both ends, including Neco Williams hitting the bar for Forest and a fine save from Matz Sels denying Adarabioyo a second for Fulham, the home side held on for a crucial victory.
The result sees Forest move three points clear of the relegation zone, providing renewed hope for their Premier League survival ambitions. Fulham, meanwhile, find themselves in 13th place, needing to regroup after a disappointing performance.
Forest’s dominant first-half display and defensive resilience in the second period showcased their determination and quality, while Fulham’s early substitutions failed to turn the tide in their favor. With both teams aiming for positive results in their remaining fixtures, the race for survival in the Premier League promises to be intense.
