Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper admits he has been left with an “awkward decision” over who should play in goal for the remaining nine games of the season.
Brice Samba had previously been first-choice between the posts, until a three-match suspension paved the way for Ethan Horvath to stake his claim for the spot. And the latter had held down his place for the last seven games prior to the international break.
A short turnaround period between being on duty with the USA and linking back up with the Reds, along with the effects of jet-lag, saw Horvath on the bench at Blackpool on Saturday, however. And Samba made some good saves as he took his opportunity to impress again, in an emphatic 4-1 win for the visitors.
