"We started playing well, we made two chances, but you can't get done with a straight ball over the top with your unit all staring at the ball. Then we give away a second that's not great. I actually thought we were still in it at that point. Then the third goal and you're just scratching your head because they're miles off what we usually do as a unit."
"We expected a fast start, I thought we handled that as well as we could. I thought we calmed it and we found pockets, started asking questions of their back line. To concede the first... they drive you mad those ones. They're the basic principles. We tried to play offside for no reason, I don't like that anyway. Then they score a goal out of a nothing situation. Then the third is a real headscratcher."
Nottingham Forest suffered a 3-1 defeat at Leeds after conceding two goals within four first-half minutes. Jayden Bogle opened the scoring following a through ball from Ilia Gruev, and James Justin's run led to Noah Okafor's finish to make it 2-0. Dominic Calvert-Lewin added a third early in the second half with Gruev again involved. Forest lost defender Murillo to injury before the match. Debutant Lorenzo Lucca pulled a goal back, but the comeback fell short. Defensive lapses, poor positioning and conceding from basic situations contributed to the loss, leaving Forest in relegation danger.
