Wolves 0 Nottingham Forest 3: Nuno’s rampant Reds make it SIX Premier League wins in a row to draw level with Arsenal

MORGAN Gibbs-White needed just seven minutes to throw Wolves fans’ taunts back in their faces. The Nottingham Forest skipper led the way as Nuno Espirito Santo’s side recorded a sixth Premier League win to move joint second in the table with Arsenal.
Chris Wood grabbed his 12th goal of the season to keep Wolves at bay before the break as the Nuno Espirito Santo bandwagon rolled on. Gibbs-White came through the ranks at Wolves before making a move - worth more than £25million - to Forest two and a half years ago.
That did not go down well with the Molineux faithful - and they have let him know about it ever since. Supporters booed Gibbs-White from the start - before launching into an unsavoury chant about his girlfriend. The Forest attacker needed no second invitation to deliver the perfect response.
He set off on a run from inside his own half and went unchallenged before feeding Anthony Elanga on the right. Elanga found Gibbs-White again and he converted for a goal of pure simplicity. Gibbs-White milked the moment as he brought out the standard celebration for Wolves fans - a finger in each ear.
FOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS. There may have fond memories of Nuno’s successful four years at Molineux - but his welcome is surely starting to wear thin with supporters. This was the third time he had returned since leaving the club in 2021 - and a third win.
