Live updates from our reporter James St Denis at the City Ground as Nottingham Forest host Man Utd.
Man Utd boss Ruben Amorim says his side would have probably lost today’s game last season.
Watch his full reaction:
The scorer of Man Utd’s equaliser, Amad, speaking after the game: “I think we have confidence now. We believe in the manager and we believe in the system. Everyone is now focused. We are training to do the best. We have three wins in the row and we wanted to make it four. We were unlucky.
“We are doing things step by step. We believe in the manager like he believes in us. Every game for us is like a final. We wanted to bring this team to the top level. We wanted to win this game and we are disappointed as a team.”
Forest boss Sean Dyche: “That’s two decisions that are not right that have gone against us. They give corners that aren’t corners. They gave one last week and one this week. It’s a really poor decision.
“That decides a lot. We are fighting for our lives to get up the table.”
Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White speaking to Sky Sports: “To get a point is good but the dressing room is frustrated not to get all three.
“We conceded two silly corners (from which they scored), I don’t think the first one was even a corner. From where I was standing, I was pretty far away, all the boys were saying at half-time the ball hadn’t gone out.
“It’s something that needs looking at because it has cost us two extra points today.”
That’s it from the City Ground!
