Overview
- Real Betis and Nottingham Forest drew 2-2 in Seville, with Antony levelling in the 85th minute after creating Cédric Bakambu’s opener.
- Igor Jesus struck a first-half brace for Forest, finishing a flowing move and then heading in from a Douglas Luiz corner.
- Forest dominated the first half with a flurry of chances, including Callum Hudson-Odoi hitting the post, but could not kill the game.
- Douglas Luiz was withdrawn at half-time with a hamstring concern, with Ange Postecoglou confirming the change was enforced.
- Postecoglou is winless in four matches to start his tenure as Forest mark their first major European game since 1995/96, with Sunderland up next at the City Ground.
