Nottingham Forest

Teenage striker Ben Brereton scored deep into added time to extend Aston Villa's miserable run and maintain Nottingham Forest's revival under Gary Brazil with a last-gasp 2-1 win at the City Ground.
The 17-year-old product of Forest's academy drove home a decisive finish to break the resolve of Steve Bruce's side, who played the final 11 minutes of this Sky Bet Championship clash with 10 men following Jack Grealish's dismissal.
The game had looked destined to end in a draw after Britt Assombalonga had cancelled out Jonathan Kodjia's spectacular 19th minute opener - until Brereton's late intervention.
