Head coach Steve Cooper praised Nottingham Forest’s resilience, having ground out a 0-0 draw at Brighton and Hove Albion.
The Reds came under pressure for long spells at the Amex Stadium as they saw very little of the ball. They needed goalkeeper Dean Henderson and the crossbar to come to their rescue, but they dug in to register only a second clean-sheet of the season in the Premier League.
The point lifts them off the foot of the table, one above Leicester City. And Cooper was pleased with the response from his players, following Saturday’s disappointing performance in the 1-0 defeat at Wolverhampton Wanderers.
