Just when Wolves needed a helping hand, up stepped José Sá. Playing with a broken wrist, the goalkeeper’s outstanding late save from Brennan Johnson’s penalty followed Rúben Neves’s successful spot-kick to earn managerless Wolves a ladder out of the relegation zone.
The Portuguese goalkeeper, who also salvaged a point against Fulham in August when saving Aleksandar Mitrovic’s penalty, dived to repel Johnson’s effort in the 79th minute to deepen Forest’s struggles in a derby dominated by four equally shared VAR calls.
