"The Hammers would have moved to within a point of the visitors with a much-needed home win and led at the break thanks to an own goal from Forest centre-half Murillo. Nuno Espirito Santo thought he had daylight against his old side when winger Crysencio Summerville drilled in a fine second at the start of the second half. But after a lengthy delay the goal was chalked off because new signing Valentin Castellanos was offside in the build-up."
"It proved crucial as moments later Forest equalised in bizarre fashion as Nicolas Dominguez's header looped into the far corner in almost slow motion. And things got worse for the hosts right at the end as goalkeeper Alphonse Areola came for a cross and punched Gibbs-White instead of the ball. VAR advised referee Tony Harrington to review the incident and once the inevitable penalty was awarded, Gibbs-White kept cool to slot home."
Nottingham Forest recovered from going behind to win at West Ham thanks to Morgan Gibbs-White's 89th-minute penalty, moving Forest to three crucial points while leaving West Ham seven points from safety. West Ham led at half-time after Murillo's own goal and thought they had doubled the lead early in the second half through Crysencio Summerville, but VAR ruled Valentin Castellanos offside in the build-up. Nicolas Dominguez then produced a looping header to level for Forest. Late in the game Alphonse Areola punched Gibbs-White from a cross, VAR intervened, a penalty was awarded, and Gibbs-White converted.
