Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper makes VAR claim about Man City goal

Steve Cooper says Manchester City's goal at Nottingham Forest should have been disallowed for a 'clear foul' as he outlined his tactical plan to take a point from the Blues.

City were on top in the first half at the City Ground and took the lead through Bernardo Silva's sweet first-half goal after Phil Foden's corner was cleared. A number of good chances came and went for City, and they were made to pay for their wastefulness as Chris Wood converted at the back post in the final ten minutes to earn a draw.

Cooper was full of praise for his side at full time as Forest made it eight games unbeaten at home in the Premier League, and he had criticism for the Video Assistant Referee in allowing City's goal that could have ensured Wood's late goal was a winner.
