Just 138 seconds later, the hosts doubled their advantage. Ian Maatsen delivered a low cross from the left side, for which he found unmarked in a six -yard box for a simple touch.

Nuno spirit, then responding and interrupting Jot Silva for Elang.
The Portuguese wing player immediately influenced, halved the deficit in the 57th minute after Neco Williams from the left delivered a dangerous cross. Silva ended up in the lower right corner of Forest hope and moved the momentum to their advantage.
From that moment on, visitors seemed more likely to score. The Villa Earmnity ceded the place of anxiety as the forest poured forward with renewed energy.
Hudson-Odoi and Williams approached, while Anderson and Gibbs-White were constant threats of Ui around.
It was Villin’s goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez who became their Savior in the final stages. He first denied Silva a reflex of the savings of a close range heading, and then he gratefully watched that Murill’s kick from the edge of the area had been trimmed by a crossbar in the time of stop.
In the meantime, Sels also held a forest in it with a series of top stops, including double savings to run late Rashford.
Despite Forest’s second half, Villa requested her seventh consecutive League victory and moved to the Manchester City points.
They remain third for the forest, but they gave City and Chelsea under them the opportunity to get caught in the rest of the weekend.
