Minutes ago, Fulham looked fairly comfortable in this game, but Forest have their confidence back after that goal. Surridge finds himself in space down the left, but his cross is cleared by Diop.

Forest are starting to find their rhythm again here, and they're starting to move the ball quicker. Lodi swings a cross in from the left, but it's blocked by Tete.

GREAT CHANCE! The Forest defenders sit back as James cuts inside from the right, and he clips a good cross to the edge of the six-yard box. De Cordova-Reid gets in front of the defender but volleys his shot over the bar.
