Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper on the end of brutal chant after Leicester City goal

Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper was on the receiving end of a brutal chant from Leicester City fans after his side’s disastrous first-half display.

The Reds could initially count themselves unlucky as Taiwo Awoniyi struck the post early on. However, Cooper ’s side were soon made to regret passing up that opportunity as James Maddison’s deflected strike found its way past Dean Henderson to give Brendan Rodgers’ men the lead.

Cooper has had a tough task so far this season, with the manager attempting to mould his much-changed squad into a coherent team, as well as trying to pick up points in the top-flight. However, his evening soon got worse as Harvey Barnes added Leicester’s second two minutes later and there was still more to come before the half-time whistle sounded.
