21 h. ago Nottingham Forest horror show on home European return adds to Postecoglou pain

Ange Postecoglou finds himself in an awkward spot. As Midtjylland streamed forward on the counterattack to score their third goal of a sobering evening, the Nottingham Forest head coach rested both hands on his head. The scenes that followed were close to extraordinary, sections of the home support singing: “You’re getting sacked in the morning.” Then things got even more painful, the same supporters singing the name of his predecessor Nuno Espírito Santo and many turning towards Evangelos Marinakis, watching on his own private television in the directors’ box.Postecoglou insisted Forest had done their homework and understood what was always going to be a tricky assignment. Postecoglou acknowledged Midtjylland would be messy opponents but their direct “vertical football” proved Forest’s undoing, the Danish side twice scoring from set pieces before Valdemar Byskov Andreasen capped the scoring after Dario Osorio pinched possession from Callum Hudson-Odoi deep in the Danish side’s half...

8 d. ago Antony swoops late for Betis to deny Nottingham Forest on European return

Already for Ange Postecoglou it feels like an interminable wait. Just as it seemed he would record his first victory as Nottingham Forest manager in a competition he won last season, Antony levelled for Real Betis to kill the impending party. Igor Jesus scored twice as Forest recovered from Cédric Bakambu’s opener and hit the woodwork in pursuit of a first-half hat-trick but the former Manchester United winger, derided in some quarters after struggling in the Premier League, struck a 85th-minute equaliser. Compared to last Wednesday’s capitulation in altogether different surroundings at Swansea, this was nothing – the Championship club scored in the 93rd and 97th minute to earn a comeback Carabao Cup victory – but it was a galling finish all the same.Forest under Postecoglou have so far been a double-edged proposition but the overriding feeling for the travelling supporters at the final whistle – about 5,000 travelled to Seville, 3,385 were stationed up in the gods in the away end –...

1 week ago Another Bournemouth blank for Eddie Howe as Newcastle are held

This season will once again be a balancing act for Eddie Howe. Newcastle struggled to adapt to the schedule during their first Champions League campaign for two decades in 2023-24 and there is a clear strategy to manage workloads this time around. Three days after defeat by Barcelona at St James’ Park, a goalless draw for Howe here on his return to Bournemouth to face a side in good form will feel like a job well done.Newcastle made six changes to the team that lost in Europe on Thursday, only one of them enforced as Nick Woltemade returned to the lineup with Anthony Gordon serving the last match of his suspension.
