Nottingham Forest’s five-match unbeaten run in the Premier League came to an end in the capital as they were beaten 2-0 by Fulham at Craven Cottage.
The afternoon got off to the worst possible start for the visitors. They lost two centre-backs to injury with seven minutes on the clock, and then fell behind 10 minutes later.
Indeed, they could have been further behind at the break. Aside from a brief spell when Gustavo Scarpa and Felipe had sights of goal, and Brennan Johson had a dangerous cross deflected behind, the Reds were on the back foot.
