Nottingham Forest Vs Man City Highlights<\/h2>\n

Nottingham Forest’s UEFA Champions League<\/a> hopes were given a huge boost as Callum Hudson-Odoi scored the only goal of the game against Man City.<\/p>\n

The Tricky Trees closed the gap on second-place Arsenal and moved four points above the Cityzens in the Premier League<\/a> table. Pep Guardiola’s men currently occupy the last UCL spot.<\/p>\n

As it stands, Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are now two points behind the Gunners. The North Londoners are back in action on Sunday when they take on Man United.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, Forest’s 1-0 win was their first in England’s elite since their 7-0 mauling against Brighton. After that, the Reds lost to Fulham and Newcastle before drawing 0-0 against Mikel Arteta’s side.<\/p>\n

The game itself appeared to be heading for a stalemate as the third vs fourth clash failed to sparkle. Star strikers Chris Wood and Erling Haaland were largely anonymous at the City Ground.<\/p>\n

The faltering champions bossed possession but struggled to make too many clear-cut chances. Winter addition Nico Gonzalez came closest in the first-half when he hit the post.<\/p>\n

Into the second period, Forest began to grow in confidence and Hudson-Odoi almost opened the scoring. His rasping effort was brilliantly saved by Ederson before he finally went one better and beat the Brazilian.<\/p>\n

With just seven minutes to go, Morgan Gibbs-White hit a beautiful cross-field ball to the former Chelsea man. Hudson-Odoi bared down on goal, went down the outside of his man and fired past Ederson at his near post.<\/p>\n

The City goalkeeper perhaps should have done a lot better as he failed to react quick enough to the shot. Forest defended superbly and rightfully celebrated their fin win at the full-time whistle.<\/p>\n

As for City, their Champions League hopes have taken a huge blow. Pep Guardiola’s side will fall down to fifth if Chelsea beat relegation-threatened Leicester on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n
