Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper has backed Brennan Johnson to bounce back from his penalty woe against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The 21-year-old had a chance to pull the Reds level in the closing minutes at Molineux, when, following a lengthy VAR review, a spot-kick was awarded for a foul on Ryan Yates. But his effort was saved by goalkeeper Jose Sa and the match finished 1-0 to the hosts.
Johnson has since been on the receiving end of a fair bit of flak on social media, with some criticising his performances amid a quiet start to the season. He is far from the only Forest player yet to find form, however, and Cooper has emphasised the importance of the Wales international to his plans.
