Overview
- Casemiro headed United in front from a Bruno Fernandes corner before Morgan Gibbs-White and Nicolo Savona scored in quick succession, and Amad Diallo equalised with a volley before seeing a stoppage-time shot cleared off the line.
- The result extended United's unbeaten run under Amorim to four matches and halted a three-game winning streak on the one-year anniversary of his appointment.
- Amorim said the team "lost control for five minutes" after the break but praised their ability to rally, contrasting it with collapses he believes they would not have recovered from last season.
- He defended making only two substitutions — introducing Patrick Dorgu and Noussair Mazraoui — to preserve rhythm, while pointing out Diogo Dalot's issues operating on the left.
- Forest manager Sean Dyche argued the corner that led to Casemiro's opener was incorrectly awarded, calling it a poor decision.
