HAAL OR NOTHING: Nottingham Forest vs Man City LIVE: Maresca’s men fall SIX behind Arsenal as Delap DOUBLE inflicts third straight loss

That is full-time, and it is a 3-1 victory for Nottingham Forest over Manchester City, heavily inspired by Liam Delap.

Forest had previously managed neither a home win nor a home goal, following an explosive public calling out from Glasner last week.

But football’s scriptwriters strike again!

Forest certainly received a helping hand when Gvardiol blundered, allowing Cunha to steal possession, surge forward, and find the bottom-left corner to break the deadlock.

More soft midfield defending enabled Delap to tear through and blast past Donnarumma, doubling the advantage by the interval.

City found another gear early in the second half, with Cherki executing a stunning half-volley to reduce the deficit and trigger a prolonged spell of pressure from the visitors.

Yet Forest rode out the storm, and Delap launched and finished a brilliant counter-attack, hammering a left-footed effort into the top-right corner after being set up by Gibbs-White.

That prompted Glasner to sprint down the touchline to join the celebrations.

Forest’s xG of 0.98 highlights the sheer quality of Delap’s goals, while City’s 1.57 proves they failed to convert pressure into dominance.

The final outcome lifts Forest out of the bottom three and up to 16th, whereas City have now suffered three straight league defeats after starting the campaign with seven successive wins.

City stay second, six points behind champions Arsenal at the summit.

Thanks for joining us for this one, folks.

Until next time!
