Forest 0-0 Charlton

Nottingham Forest were held to a 0-0 draw by Charlton Athletic at The City Ground this evening.

The Reds, who finished the game with youngsters Oliver Burke, Tyler Walker and Jorge Grant on the field, created a number of chances but were unable to find a winner.

Dougie Freedman handed Oliver Burke his first league start as the 18-year-old came in for Michail Antonio on the right wing.

Michael Mancienne continued at left back after an assured display in that position against Rotherham, while Dexter Blackstock returned to the starting line-up in place of the bench-bound Walker.

Ben Osborn made his first appearance in a matchday squad this season after recovering from a shoulder injury and sickness bug. He took his place on the bench alongside Dimitar Evtimov, Daniel Pinillos, Jack Hobbs and Jamie Paterson.

Forest made a bright start to the match and Chris Burke, captain Henri Lansbury and Dexter Blackstock had half-chances to take the lead within five minutes.

The trio failed to test Addicks keeper Nick Pope, but the visiting stopper was called into action on 11 minutes after his side conceded possession cheaply to Oliver Burke. The winger laid the ball off to Jamie Ward, who raced into space before firing it hard and low towards goal. Pope made the block and his defence eventually cleared the danger.

Forest were completely dominating the early exchanges but, after Mancienne was booked for tugging back a Charlton man, the balance of the game briefly swung in favour of the visitors.

There were two excellent headed opportunities for 6ft 7in striker Simon Makienok, the first coming courtesy of a Morgan Fox cross from the left. The Dane could only head the ball over the bar from a good position.

Four minutes later Makienok had another chance to break the deadlock, although this time he had to work harder to get into a position to meet the cross. It came from Cristian Ceballos, whose dangerous delivery left Forest’s defence with little to do but watch on as Makienok dived to reach the ball. Again, however, he sent it over the bar.

Charlton’s spell of pressure came to a close when Johann Gudmundsson’s excellent free-kick fizzed inches off-target.

The home side were soon back on the front foot and ruing a missed header of their own on 31 minutes. Eric Lichaj produced a superb cross which just evaded the head of a Charlton defender. Blackstock had to leave it late to react and he could only divert the ball wide.

Five minutes later, former French international Alou Diarra was booked for a foul on Ward. The resultant free-kick saw the ball fall for Oliver Burke in the area but his shot was inadvertently blocked by one of his team-mates.

There were half chances for both sides before the first half came to a close, Diarra heading the ball wide from a corner before Lansbury’s shot sailed high into the Bridgford Stand.

But the two sides were unable to break the deadlock and returned to their dressing rooms on level terms.

Forest reemerged unchanged and had a chance to take the lead within four minutes of the restart.

A Reds corner caused problems in the Addicks area and the ball eventually dropped for Mancienne on the bounce, but the ex-Chelsea man was unable to keep his shot down.

Lansbury was next to have an effort at goal following a patient team move on 53 minutes. Chris Burke provided the lay-off for the ex-Arsenal man to strike the ball first time from 20 yards, but he could only send it wide.

Two substitutions followed for The Reds as Freedman sent on youngsters Walker and Grant for Blackstock and Ward, who appeared to have sustained an injury.

And it didn’t take Walker long to get involved as he won a free-kick on the edge of the area inside the ‘D’. Lansbury’s only real option was to strike the ball with power but the Charlton wall stood firm and did its job.

Forest were well in control and showing a willingness to press their visitors high up the field. Their efforts were rewarded just before the hour when The Reds regained possession and Oliver Burke was able to swing over a cross to his namesake Chris.

The Scotsman twisted and turned in the area before eventually finding a gap to lay the ball off to Vaughan on the edge of the area. With a defender bearing down on him the Welsh international had to take his shot first time, sending it over the bar.

It had been a quiet evening for Forest keeper Dorus de Vries, but his concentration levels were tested on 67 minutes when Makienok produced a superb header which looked destined for the net. The Dutchman sprawled to his right to push the ball away one-handed.

And, minutes later, de Vries produced an even better save to instinctively deny Patrick Bauer, who had headed the ball powerfully towards goal from a corner.

Keen not to let their opponents get the upper hand, Forest responded with a chance for Walker. Lansbury supplied the striker, who from the right-hand side of the box sent the ball low and a yard wide of the far post.

The game was finely poised going into the final ten minutes but Lansbury almost gave his side the lead with a curling effort from 25 yards. Pope, who had dived to his left just in case, was relieved to see the ball drift wide.

Pope was rooted to his spot shortly afterwards, however, as Grant was presented with an opportunity to score from six yards. Lansbury laid the ball back from the byline but its speed made it awkward for the young midfielder, who fired it over the bar with a first-time effort.

Five minutes of added time were indicated at the end of the 90 minutes but neither side were able to find a winning goal as the match ended 0-0.

Author: Nick Richardson




Nottingham Forest have completed the signing of a Dutch midfielder.


FC Twente’s Kyle Ebecilio has arrived at The City Ground on a season-long loan.

The 21-year-old has experience of playing in England after spending three years in Arsenal’s academy.

He arrived at the Emirates after progressing through the youth ranks of his hometown club, Feyenoord, and returned to the Netherlands in May 2013 to sign for Twente.

Ebecilio has made more than 60 appearances for the Dutch top-flight side and has several Under 21s caps to his name.

The Dutchman becomes Dougie Freedman’s fourth signing of the summer following the arrival of Matt Mills, Jamie Ward and Daniel Pinillos.

Bolton 1-1 Forest

Posted: Sat 22 Aug 2015
Author: Nick Richardson



Substitute David Vaughan saw his sensational effort cancelled out in second-half stoppage time as Nottingham Forest drew 1-1 at Bolton this afternoon.

The Welshman was brought on with 16 minutes to play in a match which looked destined for a draw after Wanderers missed a penalty earlier in the second half.

But Vaughan had other ideas, lashing home a superb long-range effort with nine minutes to play.

Forest were headed for victory until, in the fourth minute of added time, Stephen Dobbie struck a dramatic equaliser.

Dougie Freedman made six changes to the team that drew with Charlton on Tuesday.

Two of them were forced as injured duo Jamie Ward and Dexter Blackstock made way for Michail Antonio and Tyler Walker.

There were debuts for Spanish left back Daniel Pinillos and Dutch central midfielder Kyle Ebecilio, while Ben Osborn was handed his first start of the season after recovering from injury and illness.

Jack Hobbs was selected as Matt Mills’ central defensive partner as Kelvin Wilson, Chris Burke, Oliver Burke and David Vaughan had to settle for a place on the bench.

The Reds made a bright start to the game and created the first chance on seven minutes. Michael Mancienne, playing in defensive midfield, linked up well with Ebecilio as Forest worked the ball to Antonio on the left. The winger cut inside to avoid a challenge but knocked the ball a little too far ahead of himself to strike it cleanly, sending his shot wide of the near post.

Bolton were on the lookout for their first goal of the season and they nearly got it on 13 minutes after Dean Moxey did well to dig out a cross from the left-hand byline. Dorian Dervite arrived late to meet the ball but could only head it over the bar.

Forest were pressing their visitors high up the field in the early stages of the half. Mancienne did well to win possession 25 yards from goal and the ball came to Lansbury on the edge of the area. The midfielder opted to shoot on his right, opening his foot on the effort and sending the ball over.

Neither side were in real control and Bolton worked a chance of their own on 22 minutes after good link up play between captain Mark Davies and youngster Zach Clough. The former carried the ball towards Forest’s area before sending it wide.

The Reds’ next chance came courtesy of a counter attack launched by Antonio. The winger did well to nick the ball away from a Bolton man inside his own area and raced away with it down the left. Osborn had made a lung-busting run down the right to provide support, and Antonio played a nice angled ball to present the midfielder with a shooting opportunity inside the area. With the angle against him and the shot coming on his weaker right foot, Osborn failed to seriously trouble Wanderers keeper Ben Amos.

The names of two Forest players entered referee Carl Boyeson’s notebook before half-time, Mancienne for a foul on Wellington Silva and Lichaj for a challenge deemed reckless by Boyeson.

The resultant free-kick saw Clough drift into space in the middle to meet the ball but he glanced it wide, leaving the match goalless going into the break.

Within five minutes of the restart, however, Bolton had a golden opportunity to break the deadlock.

Boyeson spotted a nudge by Mills on Clough as the two challenged for a ball in the area and pointed to the spot. Gary Madine took responsibility but saw his spotkick saved by de Vries. The ball came back to the forward but, under pressure, he headed the ball wide.

The let-off sparked a quick reaction from Forest, who won a free-kick in a good crossing position. Hobbs peeled into space at the back post to met Osborn’s delivery but couldn’t bring the ball down in time and Bolton bundled the ball behind.

Walker and Osborn took a clever corner which resulted in the latter dinking the ball into the middle. Antonio had to rise high to meet it six yards out but he could only head it over.

Four minutes later Forest won a free-kick 25 yards out. Lansbury’s effort took a nick off the wall and looped a yard over the bar.

Freedman’s first change saw the experienced Chris Burke replace Osborn on the right. But it was one of Forest’s youngsters, Tyler Walker, who carved out their next opportunity.

The striker held the ball up well on the halfway line and showed excellent awareness to spin and release Antonio into Bolton’s half. The weight of Walker’s pass was perfect for Antonio to take the ball in his stride, ghost away from Bolton’s defence and race through one-on-one with Amos but he could only stroke the ball straight at the keeper.

Bolton followed that miss up with two golden opportunities of they twice saw the ball deflect off a Forest man and just wide of de Vries’ post.

But the end-to-end nature of the match continued as Forest worked the ball to Chris Burke, who in turn cut it back for Ebecilio in the area. The ball was just behind the new signing and he could only harmlessly scuff his effort.

That was to be Ebecilio’s final action as he was replaced by Vaughan on 74 minutes.

And it transpired to be an inspired switch as, seven minutes later, the Welshman received the ball in midfield, edged his way into shooting territory and struck the ball sweetly into the top corner from 25 yards.

Forest’s final change came with five minutes to play as Danny Fox replaced Walker. Fox moved into left midfield with Antonio taking up lone striker duties.

Five minutes were added on at the end of the match and Neil Lennon sent Dobbie on to the field with his last throw of the dice.

And it paid off as, in the fourth minute of added time, the substitute fired the ball low past de Vries from the edge of the area to earn his side a point.

Young Reds beaten by Wednesday

Striker Ben Brereton bagged his fourth goal in three matches as Nottingham Forest's Under 18s suffered a 3-1 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday.

The Reds showed glimpses of quality but were subjected to their first loss of the season at the hands of their clinical opponents in South Yorkshire despite Brereton dispatching his third penalty in as many games.

Under 18s manager Jack Lester made two changes to the side that eased past Huddersfield Town last Tuesday with a 4-2 victory, as Tim Erlandsson and Alex Iacovitti replaced Richard Dearle and Joe Re.

Second-year scholar Iacovitti, whose impressive performances have seen him progress to training with Dougie Freedman's first team squad, began the game at centre half alongside Jordan Gabriel while Ismael Diallo and Tom Gamblen occupied the full back positions.

Duo Kieran Hayes and Brereton started the game in the forward areas for Forest, but it was the hosts who got off to the better start and they took the lead on 7 minutes. George Hurst received the ball, advanced forward and placed well into the corner past Erlandsson to give his team the lead.

And Hayes soon started to produce some energy in the attacking quarters as Forest grew into the game, running he channels and using his quick feet to take on defenders. Ex-Manchester United youngster Jake Taylor continued in an attempt to engineer good football beside the passionate Ryan Yates at the heart of midfield.

However it was the Owls who doubled their advantage in spectacular style. A ball was played over the top for Matt Penney who caught it perfectly on his left foot to rifle into the net via the inside of the post.

Forest were stunned into action and upped the pressure shortly afterwards to force the issue and hopefully halve the deficit. Brereton had a side-footed opportunity comfortably saved by the keeper in a dangerous situation, although he made amends on the stroke of half-time.

The Reds were awarded their third penalty in three games and Brereton stepped up looking assured to tuck away into the corner to offer his team some hope.

Lester freshened things up at the break as Joe Re came on to slot in at right back, while physical striker Gerry McDonagh made a first competitive appearance of the campaign following a minor injury. The Irishman immediately put himself about to distract defenders with his presence, allowing his colleagues to roam into space in offensive areas.

Brereton soon benefitted, finding himself through on goal before having his effort cleared off the line by the desperate defender. Iacovitti had to do some last-ditch defending himself at the other end with an excellent diving tackle with the Owls' attacker racing towards goal.

Four minutes later, the South Yorkshire outfit regained their two-goal lead with their third midway through the second period through Fraser Preston who grafted well in the box before slotting the ball into the net past Erlandsson.

Despite regular bouts of pressure in the final 20 minutes, Forest were struggling to get their opponents on the ropes to provide the final blow

Gabriel had a header from a corner comfortably saved late on before Taylor blasted wide from just inside the 18-yard-box which epitomised the day's frustrations for the visitors.

Lester's men are next in action when they face the challenge of Coventry City in the West Midlands on Friday 28 August (11am kick-off).

Forest's Under 16s followed their triumph in Bulgaria with a trip to South Yorkshire too and picked up a point with a 2-2 draw against Sheffield Wednesday at their training base on the neighbouring pitch on Saturday.


Forest: Erlandsson, Diallo (Re 45'), Gabriel, Iacovitti, Gamblen, Adams (McDonagh 45'), Taylor, Yates, Edser, Hayes, Brereton

Under 21s action for pair

Jamie Paterson and Andy Reid featured for the Under 21s at The City Ground this afternoon.

Paterson played the full match while Reid continued his recovery from injury by playing 75 minutes.

They were joined in the line-up by trialist Paul Taylor but the trio were unable to prevent Forest from falling to a 2-1 defeat against Coventry City.

Kasheme Walton scored Forest’s goal on the stroke of full time after Lateef Elford-Alliyu and George Thomas found the net for the visitors.

Paterson and Taylor were central to much of Forest’s attacking play, while captain Jorge Grant, winger Oliver Burke and striker James Thorne also had opportunities to score.

But Forest had to settle for Walton’s consolation, the substitute controlling the ball well in the area before placing it beyond the Coventry keeper as the match entered second-half injury time.

McLaughlin joins Southend

Stephen McLaughlin has left Nottingham Forest to join Southend United for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old has returned to the club he helped win promotion to League One via the play-offs while on loan last season.

McLaughlin spent two-and-a-half years at The City Ground after arriving from Derry City but he found first-team opportunities hard to come by on Trentside.

He made only 15 appearances for The Reds and sought experience with loan spells at Bristol City and Notts County.

McLaughlin spent the latter part of the 2014-15 campaign with Southend and today completed the formalities of a permanent move to Roots Hall.

A very good week

Nottingham Forest manager Dougie Freedman says his team have had ‘a very good week’ in the build up to Cardiff’s visit on Saturday.

For the first time this season Freedman has been handed a week with no Tuesday night fixture.

And the manager is delighted with how preparations have gone ahead of the weekend.

Freedman said: “It’s been good from an injury point of view. A few people have been feeling tired after playing Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday.

“It catches up with you, especially when it comes right at the start of the season.

“It’s been a very good week.”

Cardiff are yet to taste defeat in the league so far this season and Freedman is acutely aware of the threat Russell Slade’s men pose.

He said: “Cardiff are a good side – people are underestimating them. They’ve got good experience in their team and people who have won Championships before. We need to make sure they don’t see much of the ball.

“They’ve got four very good strikers that we’ve done a lot of homework on and we want to keep them away from the areas we think they’re dangerous.”

Cardiff programme: Fawaz's notes

'It was wonderful to hear the recollections of so many iconic figures from our most successful era and, as owner of the club, I will be immensely proud when the film hits the big screens nationwide.

'We are working with the film's producers to hopefully stage a screening at The City Ground. It would be a brilliant addition to our 150th anniversary calendar - and what better venue for Forest fans to enjoy such a sentimental picture? We will keep supporters informed of any developments.

'Sales of the home shirt were unprecedented and I expect similar uptake in the away kit, which has received excellent feedback.

'I also hope to have news on new sponsorship deals in the coming weeks. The commercial staff and I are working very hard to bring businesses on board. As always, nottinghamforest.co.uk is the best place to go for updates.

'Thank you for your continued support and come on you Reds.'

Forest 1-2 Cardiff

Nottingham Forest were beaten 2-1 at home by Cardiff City this afternoon.

Michail Antonio’s cool finish proved to be noting more than a late consolation after goals from Kenwyne Jones and Joe Mason put the Bluebirds 2-0 up.

Dougie Freedman made two changes to the side that was pegged back late on at Bolton.

The manager said Chris Burke and David Vaughan ‘turned the game’ after coming on in the second half at the Macron Stadium, and this afternoon they were rewarded with a place in the starting line up.

There were home debuts for left back Daniel Pinillos and central midfielder Kyle Ebecilio, while Tyler Walker was chosen to lead the line ahead of substitute Dexter Blackstock.

It was another young squad for Forest as Dimitar Evtimov, Oliver Burke, Jorge Grant, academy striker Gerry McDonagh and Osborn joined Blackstock and Kelvin Wilson on the bench.


The first half-chance of the match fell to Burke, who looked well placed to turn the ball home from Antonio’s cross only for Fabio Da Silva to nip in and send it behind for a corner.

The resultant delivery caused panic in the Cardiff area and the ball eventually dropped for Ebecilio. The Dutchman could only curl it high over the bar.

Dorus de Vries was tested twice as Cardiff looked to assert their authority. He made comfortable saves from Anthony Pilkington, who had cut in from the right, and Joe Mason, whose shot at the end of a speedy counter attack was straight at the keeper.

But Forest did find themselves a goal behind on 23 minutes. Eric Lichaj misjudged a defensive header, presenting Peter Whittingham with the ball in a good crossing position. The midfielder’s delivery was pinpoint and Jones’ execution was superb, heading the ball low to de Vries’ right and into the net.

There was further frustration for Forest shortly after play resumed when a Cardiff defender nipped in ahead of Walker to turn behind Antonio’s low cross from the left.

And The Reds had their hearts in their mouths moments later when Joe Mason stayed onside to receive Fabio’s neat pass in the area. Mason was stood up by Mills but he managed to trick his way past the defender, working a shooting position from a tight angle. De Vries positioned himself at his near post to push away the shot.

Cardiff keeper David Marshall was called upon for the first time on 35 minutes. Vaughan robbed Whittingham of possession in the middle and offloaded the ball to Walker, who had made a run to his left. The young striker cut inside on his right foot and unleashed a powerful effort at goal from the edge of the area. Marshall dived to his left to push the ball away.

Three minutes later, more excellent ball-winning work by Vaughan presented himself with the opportunity to supply Walker once more. Vaughan’s through ball was beautifully weighted but Matthew Connolly had enough pace to make a last-ditch challenge, nudging the ball to safety.

Forest’s pressure continued as half-time neared, Mills sending the ball wide with a first-time strike from a corner and Burke missing the target after twisting his way past Connolly.

The Reds were unable to level the scores before the break, however, and Freedman saw fit to make a change during the interval - sending on Osborn in place of Ebecilio.

And the substitute was involved almost immediately, receiving a pass from Antonio on the edge of the area. He turned towards goal but snatched at his shot, sending it harmlessly wide.

Despite those encouraging signs, Forest found themselves 2-0 down on 49 minutes.

Pilkington’s effort from just inside the area looked like it was curling into the top corner, but Mason ran across the path of the ball to nod it past the helpless de Vries.

Blackstock replaced Burke just before the hour with Walker moving out to the right.

Antonio was also playing in an advanced position, and he attempted an audacious effort after Blackstock’s flick-on bounced to him 35 yards out. He struck the ball first time, sending it whistling wide of Marshall’s post.

But it was a more conventional effort that had Marshall worried moments later, Antonio scampering into the box and seeing his low, left-footed shot well saved by the keeper.

Forest were cranking up the pressure and two substitutes combined to test Marshall once more on 65 minutes. Blackstoc’s aerial prowess was again evident as he nodded the ball down for Osborn on the edge of the area. The midfielder took his shot on the bounce but couldn’t dip the ball over Marshall.

It was transpiring to be a busy second half for Marshall, who denied Walker at his near post with around 20 minutes remaining.

The youngster was proving himself as a considerable threat and he did well to meet Antonio’s cross at the back post on 75 minutes. Closely marked, the odds were always stacked against him and he could only head the ball wide.

And Walker caused yet more panic shortly afterwards, dribbling his way into the area and forcing a combination of defender and goalkeeper to turn the ball behind.

That was to be Walker’s final act as he was replaced by his former Under 18s team-mate McDonagh.

The match looked like it may have been ebbing away from Forest until the 86th minute, when Blackstock’s flick on split the Cardiff defence, sending Antonio into the gap. He rode a challenge in the area before coolly slotting the ball low past Marshall.

Forest were given six minutes of injury time to try and find an equaliser, but the next chance fell to Cardiff. Substitute Sammy Ameobi got away from Hobbs in a wide position and rolled the ball to the unmarked Mason eight yards out. The striker’s touch failed him and de Vries claimed the ball.

With a minute and a half of injury time to go, Antonio picked the ball up in midfield and worked his way into a crossing position. He drifted the ball to the back post and Mills stretched himself to meet it but, agonisingly, he was unable to make contact.

And that proved to be the final action as The Reds were beaten 2-1

We were unlucky

Posted: Sun 30 Aug 2015
Author: George Solomon



David Vaughan believes Nottingham Forest were unlucky not to get a point out of yesterday's clash with Cardiff.

The Bluebirds went 2-0 ahead early in the second half but Forest got a goal back five minutes from time through Michail Antonio, and had chances to draw level.

Speaking after the match, Vaughan said: “We’re disappointed to have lost the game, especially considering the manner in which we lost the goals.

“It was a good fight back in the end though and we were unlucky not to get a point out of the game.

“We had a few chances and their keeper has produced some good saves. We’ve been a bit sloppy in front of goal but hopefully we can turn it around after the international break.”

The Welshman was making his fourth start of the season and he believes the injury problems that affected his first full campaign at the club are a thing of the past.

Vaughan said: “I’ve been doing my own programme in the gym which has helped a lot and hopefully my injuries are behind me.

“I’ve been fairly pleased with my start to the season. I was disappointed not to start at Bolton last week but it was nice to come on and score.

“Hopefully I can get a good run of games in the team this term.”

Antonio joins West Ham


Nottingham Forest's Michail Antonio has signed for West Ham United.

The Hammers have paid Forest an undisclosed fee for the player.

Antonio departs for the Premier League outfit after an excellent year on Trentside which saw him score 15 goals in 49 appearances during his debut season.

The 25-year-old also began the 2015-16 campaign strongly, coming off the bench to score twice against Walsall in the Capital One Cup before claiming the winner against Rotherham in The Reds’ first home league match of the campaign.

Antonio marked his final Forest appearance with a neatly taken goal against Cardiff last weekend and he will now be hoping to use his considerable pace and power to put top-flight defences to the sword.

The 29-year-old has arrived on a season-long loan.

Nottingham-born O’Grady brings a wealth of Football League experience to Trentside at a time when The Reds are without injured strikers Britt Assombalonga and Matty Fryatt.

After departing boyhood club Leicester City in 2007, O’Grady represented the likes of Rotherham, Oldham and Rochdale before winning promotion to the Championship with Sheffield Wednesday.

He later joined Barnsley, who were relegated from the second tier in 2013-14 despite his impressive return of 15 goals in 40 appearances.

O’Grady’s record attracted Brighton, for whom he has featured regularly since his arrival on the south coast.

He will now spend the rest of the 2015-16 campaign with The Reds.

O'Grady's player sponsorship is available for £745 + VAT. Call 0115 982 4312 or email sponsorship@nottinghamforest.co.uk for more information.

Two for Tyler on 20s debut

Posted: Mon 07 Sep 2015
Author: Nick Richardson



Nottingham Forest striker Tyler Walker scored twice on his debut for England’s Under 20s on Saturday.


The 18-year-old’s double set England on their way to a 5-0 victory over Czech Republic at St George’s Park.

Walker opened the scoring from a corner and made it 2-0 shortly afterwards when he raced clear of the Czech defence to slot the ball low past the keeper.

A successful debut came to an end when the Forest front man was substituted on 73 minutes and, if selected, he will be looking to show his threat once more when the sides meet again at Shrewsbury’s Greenhous Meadow this evening.

Walker wasn’t the only Red to be in international action this weekend.

New signing Ryan Mendes came off the bench to score a last-minute winner for Cape Verde in their African Cup of Nations qualifying match against Libya in Cairo.

After winning a flick-on, Mendes brilliantly controlled a lay-off from a team-mate, beat the covering defender with ease and coolly placed the ball into the bottom corner.


Deimantas Petravicius picked up his third senior cap for Lithuania by coming off the bench late on to face Estonia in a European qualifier.

Petravicius could feature again tomorrow evening when Lithuania take on San Marino and the 20-year-old winger will be hoping to make an impression as his country’s home qualifier against England edges closer.

Forest midfielder David Vaughan was an unused substitute as Wales were left frustrated by Israel at a packed-out Cardiff City Stadium.

Former Reds Chris Gunter and Aaron Ramsey played the full 90 minutes as Chris Coleman’s side failed to break down their stubborn visitors, leaving the champagne on ice as Wales await their first qualification for a major tournament since 1958.

Meanwhile, Reds youngster Alex Iacovitti played 90 minutes for Scotland's Under 19s on Friday night. He was at the heart of the Scots' defence as they beat their Bulgarian counterparts 1-0 away from home.

Williams has more than 70 senior appearances to his name, 11 coming in the Premier League, while he has also been capped seven times by Wales.

Three separate loan spells at Ipswich helped him enhance his reputation as a classy attacking midfielder and he will be hoping to prove his quality once again with a successful stay on Trentside.

Williams' player sponsorship is available for £745 + VAT. Call 0115 982 4312 or email sponsorship@nottinghamforest.co.uk for more information
