Nottingham Forest's 2-1 defeat to Newcastle has been compounded by Saturday's Premier League results.
An Alexander Isak penalty in stoppage time after a handball from Moussa Niakhate condemned Steve Cooper's side to their first defeat at home in the league since mid-September. The Reds had taken the lead on the night after a goal from Emmanuel Dennis but Isak's equaliser on the stroke of half-time followed by the winning penalty has increased relegation worries at the City Ground.
Forest are now just two points above the bottom-three after Everton's 2-2 draw against Chelsea in the late kick-off. Leicester City secured a point in a 1-1 draw at Brentford and Southampton drew 3-3 with Tottenham, although there will be some relief at Bournemouth's 3-0 defeat to Aston Villa.
