"Swansea pulled off a League Cup shock to hand Ange Postecoglou his second successive defeat since taking over as Nottingham Forest manage. Forest conceded twice in stoppage time to lose 3-2 after being 2-0 up. Forest had controlled the opening half with Igor Jesus scoring twice - his first in the 14th minute when he fired in at the far post after a ball rebounded into his path and the second just before the break after a flowing move."
"There was no hint of the drama to come for most of the second half on a rainy south Wales night but Swansea got a lifeline with just over 20 minutes remaining as Cameron Burgess found space to head in from a corner. Slovenian substitute Zan Vipotnik then levelled in the third minute of stoppage time and Forest could not even get to a penalty shoot-out as Burgess pounced after Ethan Galbraith's piledriver came back off the woodwork."
Nottingham Forest led 2-0 through two first-half goals from Igor Jesus, who scored in the 14th minute and again just before half-time after a flowing move. Swansea revived in the second half, with Cameron Burgess heading in from a corner with just over 20 minutes remaining. Slovenian substitute Zan Vipotnik levelled in the third minute of stoppage time. Forest then failed to reach a penalty shoot-out when Burgess reacted quickest after Ethan Galbraith's powerful shot came back off the woodwork, securing a 3-2 Swansea win. Forest have conceded six goals in Ange Postecoglou's first two matches.
