Nottingham Forest are reaping the rewards of Taiwo Awoniyi having “a spring in his step” since the World Cup break.
The front man has been in fine form in recent games, causing defences all kinds of problems. After taking a little while to find his feet since his move from Union Berlin in the summer, he is now having a big impact for the Reds - both with his goals and his all-round play.
Awoniyi was named man of the match in Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea. And he netted his fifth goal of the campaign on Wednesday night, having been played in by Brennan Johnson, to clinch a 1-0 win over Southampton.
