Report: Nottingham Forest 0-0 Arsenal

Despite creating by far the greater number of chances – and hitting the post – we had to settle for a point away to Nottingham Forest.

Riccardo Calafiori struck the upright in the first half, and Mikel Merino had a good header saved, but we couldn’t break down the home defence.

So it finished goalless, and we lost further ground at the top of the table.

Patient start

Both sides picked up a booking apiece in the opening three minutes –Calafiori for us after he tugged back Calum Hudson-Odoi, then Nikola Milenkovic for not retreating at a free kick.
