**Nottingham, England –** Brentford secured a surprising 2-0 victory over Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Thursday night, ending Forest’s hopes of a top-three finish. Goals from Yoane Wissa, both showcasing poor defending from Forest, sealed the win for the Bees.

The loss leaves Forest’s top-five aspirations in jeopardy, while Brentford’s victory extends their unbeaten run to three matches. Post-match analysis highlighted poor defensive lapses by Forest as key factors in the defeat. The result also continues a trend of Brentford performing poorly in midweek matches.
