Head coach Steve Cooper was left with mixed feelings after Nottingham Forest lost 1-0 to Olympiacos in their penultimate friendly of the winter break.
The Reds rounded off their week-long training camp in Greece with a meeting with their fellow Evangelos Marinakis-owned side at the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium. The visitors saw plenty of the ball without creating too many opportunities in a first half which was played at a tepid pace.
They improved after the break, but were already behind to a header from former Forest man Pajtim Kasami. And although Serge Aurier, Brennan Johnson and Morgan Gibbs-White had chances, an equaliser wouldn’t come.
