Nottingham Forest secured their sixth consecutive Premier League victory with a dominant 3-0 triumph over Wolverhampton Wanderers. Goals from Gibbs-White, Wood, and Awoniyi propelled Forest to a historic winning streak.
Goals from Morgan Gibbs-White, Chris Wood and Taiwo Awoniyi clinched a sixth successive Premier League win for Nottingham Forest as they toppled Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-0. Not since 1966/67 had Forest won six games on the trot in the top tier, but that was what they were aiming for in the West Midlands. And they got off to the perfect start when Gibbs-White found the net against his former club with just seven minutes on the clock after being teed up by Anthony Elanga.
Wolves tried to summon a quick response, though, and it took an important block from Murillo and a big save from Matz Sels to keep them at bay. Sels had to come to the rescue again on the half hour as he thwarted a header from Jorgen Strand Larsen. The Reds argued they should have got a chance to make it 2-0 from the spot with 34 minutes played when Ola Aina’s cross struck Rayan Ait-Nouri. However, a VAR check ruled against handball as his arm was deemed to have been in a “natural position”. Nevertheless, they did double their lead right on the stroke of half-time. Callum Hudson-Odoi pulled the ball back for Wood, who slotted home his 12th goal of the campaign. Sels made another crucial save to deny Strand Larsen after the break, then Awoniyi came off the bench to add gloss to the scoreline in added time.
