Premier League: Wood's Double Takes Forest To Fifth In The Table

By IANS News October 26, 2024 • 09:16 AM View: 271

Nuno Espirito Santo: Chris Wood continued his fine form for Nottingham Forest as his two goals helped them to a 3-1 East Midlands derby win over former boss Steve Cooper's Leicester City to go fifth in the table.

Ryan Yates profited from Leicester’s failure to clear their lines for the opening goal, curling an effort beyond Mads Hermansen for only his second Premier League strike.

The Foxes drew level through Jamie Vardy soon afterwards, though, with the veteran forward rounding off a fine move with a neat finish at the near post, Premier League reports.
