Forest beat ailing Man City 1-0 to boost Champs Lge bid

Nottingham Forest’s improbable bid for Champions League qualification has been strengthened by a 1-0 victory over ailing Manchester City in the Premier League, with winger Callum Hudson-Odoi scoring the winner in the 83rd minute.

City goalkeeper Ederson was beaten at his near post by Hudson-Odoi’s shot in one of few clear-cut chances in a tight game at the City Ground on Saturday lunchtime.

Third-place Forest, who battled relegation last season, moved four points clear of fourth-place City, winners of the last four Premier League titles.

Pep Guardiola’s team won’t be making it five in a row and have a fight on their hands just to finish in the top five in the league, which should be enough to qualify for the Champions League.

City have steadied after a dreadful end to 2024 but have still lost three of their last five league games, to the current top three of Liverpool, Arsenal and now Forest.

Forest have 10 games remaining as they look to get back into Europe’s top competition, which they famously won in 1979 and ’80 under Brian Clough.
