![]() VAR intervened once more, and the goal was disallowed as the video footage showed Berge clearly and deliberately using his hand to knock the ball past McKenna.īoth sides made further substitutions as the game drew to its close, with forest bringing on Yates for Mangala, and Origi for goal-scorer Hudson Odoi. Berge beat McKenna for pace and popped the ball into the Forest net. After a seemingly eternal delay while the referee was summoned to the pitch-side monitor, the VAR decision was that the goal could stand.Īnother long ball down Forest’s left found Berge unmarked, with Tavares stranded up field. ![]() VAR did its level best to try and find a reason to disallow the goal, first questioning whether there was an offside infringement, and when that proved no one was, they checked for a possible handball. Within moments Burnley withdrew their tricksy number 30, bringing on the 6 feet 4-inch Berge, who as in the League cup fixture proved to be a handful with strong running and fast pace.įorest though picked up the pace themselves, and a swift counter attack saw Elanga an Aina work together down the right wing, with a long cross reaching Hudson-Odoi who crowned a fine debut with a curling right-foot shot into the top corner, off the inside of the post. Montiel was withdrawn shortly after the 2nd half started, with Tavares coming on and taking the left back position, with Aina switching to right back. The ball ewas cut back to the edge of the “D” and stroked home to take Burnley in at half-time with an undeserved, if well worked, lead.įorest emerged 2nd half and tried to get further up field, but that Burnley game plan of drawing us on, then knocking long balls over the top continued to confound forest defenders. As the half wore on Burnley seemed to grow in confidence, and on 41 minutes another long over the top of Montiel ball saw their 30 skip to the by-line, leaving Worrall who was desperately trying to cover for the stranded Montiel. As a result, Burnley began to dominate possession, but it was all pedestrian stuff, sideways and back to the keeper. Straight away, when they did get the opportunity, it was obvious that the diminutive figure of Montiel at right back was gong to be targeted with long high balls over his head and into the space behind him for their tricky number 30 to attack.Īfter that first 25 minutes of forest playing some neat football, we seemed to lose some heart, and we sat back off their men. Burnley had their young England keeper booked early doors for persistent time-wasting, as they approached the match with less ambition than team to visit here last season or this. Also, with a pointless Burnley, recent victors in the League Cup at the WFCG in a dour and dreadful match, I expected a drab game and the prospect of Forest conceding the points.įor 25-mintes Forest played fast attacking football, with the only downside being the lack of clear-cut chances being created. Personally, I had a lot of misgivings about this game as we approached kick-off, feelings heightened to learn we were on the verge of a new record of 5 consecutive home wins at this level. The 29,000 crowd were full of expectation as Montiel, Sangare, Hudson-Odoi and Sangare all made their full Premier League World Famous City Ground debuts. I had several goes at naming a starting lineup, and still didn’t get it right. It was good to welcome back Premier League football after the 2-week international break, and Steve cooper excited the fans with the adoption of a more attacking formation and the introduction of some of the new faces brought into the Club over the closing few days of the summer transfer window.
