"Arnaud Kalimuendo gave Forest the the lead with a fine solo goal seven minutes into the second half, but it appeared as if a Utrecht side yet to win in the Europa League this season would claim something from the game when former Swansea City defender Mike Van der Hoorn stole in at the far post to level. Yet Jesus came off the bench to seal the points in Forest's final game in this competition in 2025,"
"rounding off an excellent move by netting on the rebound after Dan Ndoye's header had been repelled by Vasilios Barkas. Jesus' fourth goal in five Europa League matches secured Forest's first away win in any European tie since 1995, one that sees them move onto 11 points, a tally likely to be enough to ensure they will at least clinch a place in the playoff round."
