Championship round-up: Brentford get survival boost by holding on against Nottingham Forest as Norwich are held by Bristol City

Brentford gave their chances of survival in the Championship a huge boost with a nervy 3-2 away win at Nottingham Forest.

For 80 minutes Forest had no answer to Brentford’s cutting display and the defeat leaves them in danger of being dragged into the relegation dogfight.

Danish forward Lasse Vibe set the Brentford ball rolling in the 17th minute and got his second soon after half-time with a neat dinked finish over Forest goalkeeper Jordan Smith.
