"A low-key first half made way for an end-to-end second period, with Cherki slipping in Tijjani Reijnders to open the scoring in the 48th minute. With Cherki having struck the post, Omari Hutchinson pulled Forest level soon after, and it looked as though Sean Dyche's team may claim a hard-fought point when John Victor brilliantly denied Phil Foden from close range."
"Data Debrief: Half-century up for Cherki It is now eight Premier League goal involvements for Cherki since the start of November. In that time, only Erling Haaland (11) and Bruno Fernandes (nine) have more. Cherki's assist for Reijnders means he has now set up seven league goals since November 1, which is more than any other player in Europe's top five leagues. He now has 50 goal involvements in his top-flight career, too (16 goals, 34 assists)."
Rayan Cherki scored and assisted in Manchester City's 2-1 victory over Nottingham Forest at the City Ground. He set up Tijjani Reijnders in the 48th minute and later finished from Josko Gvardiol's knockdown in the 83rd to secure the win. Omari Hutchinson equalised after Cherki struck the post, and John Victor made a strong save to deny Phil Foden. Cherki has reached 50 top-flight goal involvements (16 goals, 34 assists) and has eight Premier League involvements since November. Manchester City extended their winning run to six consecutive league matches.
