Coventry get first Premier League win in dramatic Forest clash
Jay Dasilva scored the winner as Coventry took their first league victory, while Nottingham Forest’s late equaliser was controversially disallowed.
Coventry delivered a dramatic away win as they finally tasted success in the Premier League this season, coming out on top in a tight match against Nottingham Forest. As BBC Sport reports, Jay Dasilva made the difference with a second-half strike that separated the sides in the end.
A goal that settles it
The visitors’ breakthrough came after they resisted Forest’s momentum and waited for their moment. BBC Sport states that Dasilva scored the only goal, turning the game when it was still very much in play.
A controversial twist late on
With time running out, Forest looked set to respond. The report says Igor Jesus found the equaliser late on, but it was disallowed controversially, denying Nottingham Forest the point that seemed on the cards.
The 0-1 result gives Coventry a huge lift—especially because, according to BBC Sport, it is their first Premier League win since their return to the top flight. For Forest, the disappointment will be sharpened by the final-minute decision, which is likely to be debated long after full time.
