Lloyd Canfield at Wembley Stadium
As I mentioned, Forest needed some attacking impetus in the form of Anthony Elanga and Nuno obviously thought the same thing.
Always nice when that happens…
Elanga’s introduction has almost immediately paid off, as he sprinted into the middle from the right-hand side to meet an inch perfect Callum Hudson-Odoi cross.
He was only able to poke it inches wide of the near post though, as he clutches at his head in frustration.
Elanga knows what a big chance that was, but it has given life to the heaps of Forest fans behind the goal.
46 – Nottm Forest 0-1 Man City
WHAT A CHANCE FOR FOREST – AND ELANGA!
He’s been on 40 seconds and Elanga has Forest’s first shot of the entire game – and he should’ve scored!
They work the ball behind City down their left and the cross is fired in low where Elanga makes an inward run from the right and he side-foots it wide from 10 yards.
What a huge moment and opportunity. But it’s got the fans in red back off their seats!
Back underway!
Elanga replacing Danilo for the second half.
