MATCH VERDICT: #itfc 1 #nffc 1

https://t.co/UjuMLVE2v8

[Stuart Watson @Stuart_Watson]

Issa Diop with a poorly timed lunging tackle on McAtee as he looked to burst into the box. Wipes him out. Can't believe the ref doesn't give a foul.

Play goes on. VAR tells Bramall to take a look. Does so. Adjudges McAtee's touch was going away from goal. Just a booking. #itfc

HT: #itfc 1 (Enciso 41) #nffc (Williams 13)

Forest the awkward, direct, threatening in transition side O'Neil called. In windy conditions, major threat in behind FBs.

Town frustrated/frustrating for lot of that half, but a long ball/mix-up leads to Enciso's 1v1 leveller.

[Stuart Watson @Stuart_Watson]

GOOOAALLL!!! 1-1 #itfc - Enciso (41)

Been a frustrating half, but Town are level.

O'Shea sweeps up expertly. Long ball. Schlager and Milenkovic get in a muddle. Enciso races away to slide home one-v-one.

[Stuart Watson @Stuart_Watson]

GOAL: 0-1 Forest - Williams (13)

Delap and Diop tussle. Gibbs-White and O'Shea tangle. Munoz swings in a cross from the right and, with both CBs drawn out of position, Williams arrives to volley in at the back post.
