Gary Lineker calls Nottingham Forest duo 'absolutely brilliant'
Former Leicester City star Gary Lineker has praised Brennan Johnson and Djed Spence after their performances in a 4-1 humbling of the Foxes.
The duo both provided evidence as to why they were linked with Premier League moves in the January transfer window with their goalscoring performances.
Johnson latched onto a poor backpass intended for Danny Ward and placed the ball between the 'keeper's legs to double the home side's lead.
Spence, meanwhile, showed excellent drive to burst forward from 20-25 yards out to combine with Zinckernagel for Forest's fourth goal.
Neutrals watching from home would have thought it was Nottingham Forest who were the Premier League side rather than Lineker's former side as Steve Cooper 's team ran riot at the City Ground.
