Tammy Abraham scores four as Nottingham Forest hold Aston Villa in 10-goal thriller

Tammy Abraham was in blistering form, scoring four times as Lewis Grabban’s goal eight minutes from time denied Aston Villa a win over Nottingham Forest, both sides settling for a 5-5 draw.

Abraham’s feat included a hat-trick - his first in professional football - in 25 first-half minutes to twice get Villa back on track.

Grabban and Joao Carvalho gave the visitors an early two-goal lead but parity was restored as the Chelsea loanee struck in the 11th and 14th minutes.

In the 22nd minute, Matty Cash pulled Nottingham back up front and the former Swansea City striker responded via the penalty spot 14 minutes later.
