Nottingham Forest fans have hit back at Taylor Richards after the Birmingham City midfielder claimed the Reds had been second-best despite being Blues 2-0 at the City Ground.
Kienan Davis gave the hosts the lead on five minutes as Forest dominated the first half an hour against their Championship rivals. Kristian Pedersen, Scott Hogan, Nico Gordon and Richards all had chances to score but failed to find a way past Brice Samba as he kept consecutive clean sheets.
Scott McKenna ensured the three points would remain in the East Midlands with a powerful header past Connal Trueman - a replacement shot-stopper for Neil Etheridge who had to be carried off on a stretcher. Whilst Forest registered almost double Blues' number of shots (13-7), the visitors registered more shots on-target than Steve Cooper's side during the first half.
