Nottingham Forest VS Arsenal
I expected a good performance from Arsenal today. But Arsenal's performance is not good today. Although they are dominating the match, Arsenal are trailing 1-0 at the end of the first half. Taiwo Awoniyi's goal gave Nottingham Forest a 1-0 lead in just 19 minutes.
Second half of the match have started and Nottingham forest is still maintaining their 1-0 lead, Arsenal performance is below my expectation, I wasn’t expecting the match to be a difficult one for Arsenal but they are finding it difficult to score in the match, Arsenal should be Ashamed of themselves if they can lose the match, am not even expecting a draw from them. But I don’t know why am having confidence that Arsenal is going to win the match, we can decide if they will draw, win or lose yet, since this is just the beginning of second half.
Since Nottingham Forest managed to take a 1-0 lead, the team will now play completely defensively. They will not attempt any attack. Nottingham Forest will be happy to win this match 1-0 or draw 1-1. In the second 15 minutes, Nottingham players did not attempt any attack. Arsenal's players attacked, but they could not break Nottingham's defense. Moreover, in today's match we feel Arsenal's attack is aimless. They are not playing well. I wouldn't be surprised if Nottingham win today.
This is a verdict match that would decide the fate of Nottingham Forest if they are going to survive away from the relegation zone and knowing full well how crucial this match is to them they just got to give their best shot by defending every chance they have got to escape relegation. There's no way arsenal artilleries are going to break through the Forest defense line cause they arsenal have lost this game right from the first 20mins of play.
Manchester City need not stress themselves about tomorrow's game with Chelsea as the outcome of this match has reduce every tension about them winning the EPL title based on a win for them City against Chelsea.
