Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White reveals shocking World Cup moment

Gibbs Nottingham Forest Forest World Cup Morgan GibbsWhite England Steve Cooper

Morgan Gibbs-White has revealed how he responded to racial abuse to help steer England to World Cup glory.

The Nottingham Forest midfielder was part of the under-17 side that achieved national acclaim after lifting the World Cup in 2017. Steve Cooper was in charge of the Young Lions, which played a key role in the 22-year-old opting to leave Wolves and join the Reds in a club record deal this summer.

England battled from 2-0 down to record an emphatic 5-2 win but Gibbs-White explained that one moment during the match inspired the team to their statement victory. The Forest man scored the equaliser for Copper’s side in the second-half, just minutes after he says he was racially abused by a Spanish player.
