Danny Ings makes surprise Nottingham Forest comment after West Ham brace

West Ham striker Danny Ings has revealed he was "disappointed" to only score two goals against Nottingham Forest on Saturday afternoon.

The former Aston Villa striker bagged a brace as the Hammers thrashed the Reds 4-0 at London Stadium, with Declan Rice and Michail Antonio adding the other two goals.

Speaking after the match, Ings revealed that he was disappointed to not score more goals against a Forest side who were "unacceptable" in their performance, according to both Steve Cooper and Joe Worrall.

"I'll be honest I am disappointed not to get more goals today but that's football," Ings told BBC Match of the Day after the game.

"I was gambling, it was an instinctive run for my first goal and it's a wonderful feeling. The more I play the more you'll see it hit the back of the net.

"As a striker goals are everything and it gives you a foundation to kick on and get some momentum.

"You know how tough the Premier League is. How better to kick on than win 4-0 at home?"
