'Higher level' - Brennan Johnson claim made as Nottingham Forest star shines on international stage

Portsmouth and Wales midfielder Joe Morrell says he has been impressed by Nottingham Forest ace Brennan Johnson and the "PlayStation generation" who have adapted well to the demands of international football.

Wales played a fundraiser friendly match to help Ukraine, facing Czech Republic in Cardiff on Tuesday evening. Robert Page opted to hand several youngsters an opportunity after booking a World Cup play-off final spot with a 2-1 win over Austria last week.

Nottingham Forest's academy graduate Brennan Johnson was named in the starting team amongst the likes of Rabbi Matondo (21) and Rubin Colwill (19). And the positive team performance helped the Welsh side extended their unbeaten home run to 18 games - a record that stretches back to November 2018.
