For 84 minutes at the City Ground, it looked like Nottingham Forest and West Ham were heading for a stalemate. But football has a way of flipping the script, and three late goals turned the tide as Graham Potter's Hammers stunned Forest 3-0, Softfootball reports.
Forest started brightly, pushing to make it back-to-back home wins for the first time since 1985. They controlled much of the first half, but for all their possession, they never really troubled the new signing Mads Hermansen in goal.
Their best chance fell to Lucas Paqueta just before halftime, the Brazilian connecting sweetly with Mateus Fernandes' cross, only for Mats Sels to keep it out with a fine stop. That moment, Softfootball understands, was as close as either side came in a cagey opening 45 minutes.
