Nottingham Forest star Brennan Johnson makes 'massive' Derby County admission

Nottingham Forest star Brennan Johnson has named scoring in both matches against Derby County this season as the highlight of his career so far.

The 20-year-old equalised for the Reds and cancelled out Tom Lawrence's early opener with a strike eight minutes from time to salvage a point from Pride Park back in late August. It was the attacking midfielder's first Championship goal in just a ninth league appearance for Forest.

Four further goals followed against Barnsley, Blackpool, Swansea City and Hull City followed over the next five months before Johnson was again scoring against their East Midlands rivals. On this occasion in late January, the attacking midfielder scored what turned out to be the winner at the City Ground in a 2-1 win for the Reds.
