EPL: Iwobi substituted after 30mins as Nottingham Forest lead Fulham 3-0

Alex Iwobi was taken off after only half an hour, as Fulham fell apart in the first half of their Premier League game against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night.

The Super Eagles midfielder was part of a triple substitution, as Marco Silva tried to regain control of the game.

Iwobi, Sasa Lukic and Harry Wilson are the three taken off, with Adama Traore, Tom Cairney and Willian coming on.

Morgan Gibbs-White inspired Nottingham Forest to a 3-1 home win over Fulham to partly ease Nuno Espirito Santo’s side’s Premier League relegation fears.

The home side made a dream start, racing into a 2-0 lead after just 19 minutes thanks to goals from Callum Hudson-Odoi and Chris Wood, before Gibbs-White added a third in first-half injury time.

However, Tosin headed a goal back for Fulham at the start of the second period as Forest nerves began to jangle, only for the hosts to hold on to record just a second league win in their 11 matches to move three points clear of Luton Town in 18th, while the visitors stay 12th in the table.
