  • NOTTINGHAM FOREST PLAYER RATINGS: A Jekyll and Hyde performance from the Forest goalkeeper. His insistence on playing with his feet cost his team dearly with one of his wayward passes leading directly to Rashford's equaliser.

  • Wasn’t the most accurate with the ball at his feet, but the defensive side of his game is certainly worthy of praise. The Brazilian was seldom caught out of position, often using his excellent pace to recover when necessary. AFP
