Nottingham Forest continued their impressive start to the season as they maintained their unbeaten league record in a thrilling 2-2 draw at Brighton.

For the fifth time in five Premier League matches, Forest took the lead, following an early penalty from Chris Wood after Callum Hudson-Odoi had been tripped by Carlos Baleba.

Forest had gained their best result of the season last time out, winning 1-0 at Anfield against Liverpool, but they could not hang on to make it three successive away wins.

But overall, Nuno Espirito Santo’s side will be happy to fight back and earn a point after two goals just before half-time had swung the game in the hosts’ favour.

Substitute Ramon Sosa got the equaliser midway through the second half, converting from Morgan Gibbs-White’s pass.

But Gibbs-White, along with both managers, was sent off late on in a frantic finale, although the 10 men of Forest were able to hold on to a hard-fought point.
