Nottingham Forest favourite Michael Dawson called out goalkeeper Keylor Navas after Manchester City took the lead at the City Ground.
The Reds were on the backfoot during a one-sided first half, with City enjoying 84 per cent of the possession and 397 passes to Forest’s 72. Despite that, Steve Cooper’s defence held firm for most of the half.
That was until Bernardo Silva fired home a cracking strike four minutes before the break having been teed up by Jack Grealish after the home side had failed to clear a corner.

However, Dawson felt on-loan stopper Navas, who was snapped up from PSG last month following an injury to Dean Henderson, should have done better, with the ball going in the centre of the goal.
Watching the game for Sky Sports’ Soccer Saturday show, Dawson said: “He’s [Bernardo] 20 yards out and he just hits it, it’s coming across his body. I’m going to question the goalie, it’s comes through an awful lot of bodies but it doesn’t go in the corner of the goal.
“He’s got to save that, for me. It’s a great strike but it’s the centre of the goal and when he sees that [back], I think he’s going to be disappointed.”
