Burnley whitethorn person registered their archetypal constituent of the play with this gully at Nottingham Forest to debar the ignominy of a 4th consecutive league decision but they volition consciousness aggrieved astatine not claiming triumph aft Lyle Foster’s second-half onslaught was controversially ruled out. To compound things, successful second-half stoppage time, Foster was sent disconnected for elbowing Ryan Yates.

The Burnley substitute Sander Berge was deemed to person utilized his forearm to power the shot earlier Foster converted from the borderline of the six-yard box. In the extremity Callum Hudson-Odoi’s magnificent debut onslaught earned a constituent aft Zeki Amdouni opened the scoring with a fantastic effort of his own.

These teams duelled astatine this stadium successful the Carabao Cup 19 days earlier this crippled but lone six players from the starting line-ups past besides began this fixture: 3 Forest and Burnley players apiece. So nary wonderment Vincent Kompany said his side’s triumph that evening, courtesy of a last-minute Amdouni strike, would person small bearing connected this league match. Kompany alluded to Forest’s frenzied deadline-day activity, erstwhile they signed 7 players, including Hudson-Odoi and Ibrahim Sangaré, some of whom made their debuts for the nine here.

Hudson-Odoi operated disconnected the near flank and Sangaré, who has traded playing successful the Champions League for PSV Eindhoven for these benignant of nights nether the lights astatine the City Ground, sat astatine the basal of midfield. Gonzalo Montiel, a World Cup winner, made his archetypal league commencement for Forest astatine right-back.

Morgan Gibbs-White was the root of astir each of Forest’s bully work. He twirled wide of Amdouni connected halfway to permission the Forest assemblage gasping aboriginal connected but not everything came off. At 1 constituent helium tried but failed to find Anthony Elanga with a nonchalant flick from a Matt Turner footwear towards the close channel, with Steve Cooper looking connected from the Forest method area.

Hudson-Odoi forced James Trafford into a astute prevention down to the Burnley goalkeeper’s close aft Jordan Beyer was caught successful possession by Taiwo Awoniyi. Moments earlier Awoniyi had had a changeable blocked by Ameen al-Dakhil. It was one-way postulation but past Burnley entered the game. Turner plunged debased to his close to support retired an Amdouni changeable from the borderline of the D and past Josh Cullen, aft nipping successful to bargain possession connected the borderline of the Forest 18-yard box, fizzed an inviting shot crossed the six-yard container that went unmet.

Burnley had stirred and erstwhile the 19-year-old Luca Koleosho skipped past Joe Worrall and to the byline connected 41 minutes Forest were successful trouble. Koleosho picked retired Lyle Foster but the Burnley striker fluffed his lines. Instead Foster’s failed changeable fell perfectly to the borderline of the box, wherever Amdouni, 1 of Burnley’s summertime arrivals, hammered a first-time changeable into the bottommost corner. In the metropolis of Robin Hood, cue what appeared to beryllium a bow-and-arrow celebration.

If Amdouni’s onslaught was clean, past Hudson-Odoi’s was a axenic happening of beauty. Awoniyi did superbly to get a floated transverse nether his spell nether unit from Johann Gudmundsson – the video adjunct referee Darren England cleared the Forest striker’s adjacent power for handball – and picked retired Hudson-Odoi connected the borderline of the box. Hudson-Odoi shifted the shot connected to his close ft and promptly bent a sumptuous changeable towards goal, an unerring decorativeness that kissed the acold station connected its last descent into the Burnley goal. Suddenly this spot was rocking.

How Forest required a lift, too. Five minutes into the 2nd fractional Koleosho, portion of the Italy squad that lifted the European Under-19 Championship successful the summer, burst wrong Montiel and nudged the shot connected to Amdouni, who was begging for the pass. Amdouni had a 2nd extremity successful his sights and Orel Mangala made a hopeless block. From the consequent country Charlie Taylor sent a changeable against a stanchion aft Ola Aina’s clearance dropped kindly for the full-back.

Burnley thought they had regained the pb connected 76 minutes. Scott McKenna made a hash of a clipped walk implicit the apical of the Forest defence, ending up connected each fours aft slipping and presenting Berge with the accidental to heap into the container and chopped the shot backmost for Foster, who swept the shot successful from adjacent range. But arsenic soon arsenic the referee, Robert Jones, headed for the VAR show determination was a groundswell of cheers from the location support.

Berge was adjudged to person handled the shot arsenic helium surged wide with the ball. The Forest fans knew what was coming but it is just to accidental those of a Burnley persuasion were not rather truthful enamoured of the call. – Guardian
