Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo admitted his side’s 2-1 comeback win over Aston Villa was both exciting and tense at the same time.
“I couldn’t calm down, I is so nervous. I tried to focus on the game ufabet https://ufabet999.app and the best thing I could do for the team was not to care about what was happening outside.”
“It was a great finish, with belief and desire. It is very close in the first half, both teams managed well, not too many mistakes. We cause them problems and they caused them problems from set-pieces, then we had important moments and conceded a goal.”
“But the players’ response was great. In the moment when VAR ruled out our goal, it gave us the belief that we could go on. After that it was great. We ran all over the place. It was fun but of course it was stressful.”
“It’s not just about football, it’s about belief, it’s about coming back from difficult moments and going again when you don’t have the energy but you have the heart. When I think about when Annoni Elanga came off the bench, it’s about the players realising they’re not the starters but they can help in the right moments. As long as we understand that then we can do very well.”
