What a night at The City Ground! Nottingham Forest pulled off a stunning upset against Manchester City, securing a crucial 1-0 victory in the Premier League thanks to a late goal from Callum Hudson-Odoi.
It was a tense and tactical battle, with both teams fighting hard for European football qualification. The first half saw City dominate possession, but they struggled to break down Forest’s rock-solid defense. A few half-chances came their way, including a fierce strike from Nico Gonzalez that clipped the outside of the post, but Forest held firm.
The second half started with more urgency from the home side. Within seconds of the restart, Nico Dominguez forced a save from Ederson with a well-struck volley. Hudson-Odoi also had a brilliant low effort tipped onto the post by the Brazilian goalkeeper, as Forest showed they were not going to sit back and defend for the entire game.

As the match seemed destined for a goalless draw, Forest found their moment of magic in the 83rd minute. Morgan Gibbs-White delivered a perfect pass to Hudson-Odoi, who controlled it beautifully and fired past Ederson at his near post. The City Ground erupted in celebration as Forest fans realized they were on the brink of a huge result.
Pep Guardiola made late changes, bringing on Kevin De Bruyne and Omar Marmoush in a desperate attempt to salvage something, but City’s attack continued to lack the cutting edge they are usually known for. Mateo Kovacic came closest in stoppage time with a powerful effort that whistled just wide, but it was not to be for the reigning champions.
With this defeat, Manchester City have now lost nine league games this season—equalling their worst tally under Guardiola. Forest, on the other hand, leapfrog City in the standings, sitting comfortably in third place and edging closer to securing a Champions League spot for the first time since 1981.
The Forest dressing room was in full celebration mode after the game, with manager Nuno EspÃrito Santo hailing his team’s resilience and commitment. Meanwhile, Guardiola admitted his side lacked the intensity and creativity needed to win, emphasizing that they now have "ten finals" left to rescue their season.
A massive result for Forest, a worrying one for City—this Premier League season just got even more interesting!
