Championship: West Bromwich Albion 0 - 0 Nottingham Forest

West Bromwich Albion had to settle for a point as they were held to a goalless draw by Steve Cooper's improving Nottingham Forest.

After Jayson Molumby was sent off for two bookable offences in the 70th minute, the home side did well to see out the game as Forest chased a winner against 10 men.

Forest, who have now lost just once in 13 games, had to be the more content of the two teams after a fifth draw in six.

Albion had a chance to win it in stoppage time when substitute Jordan Hugill blazed over. They were then booed off by some of their fans after another goalless draw.

Let's have a look at some of the best reaction

West Bromwich Albion boss Valerien Ismael spoke with local media after the match: 

"Until the red card we were more on the front game-changerat was a game changer. Then it was about staying in the game and we did that. We are very strong defensively. But we had four big chances to score. We are struggling for goals and we need to work on it."

One West Brom fan added: "It was a poor performance. Automatic promotion is already looking a big ask and that has to be a huge concern for everyone at the club."

Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper told the Nottingham Post:

“It was an average game. I thought we were average for large parts of the game, particularly in the first half. I didn’t really like our performance. I didn’t think we played with enough intensity. I didn’t think we made enough passes. We maybe lacked a bit of belief."
