Nottingham Forest Overpowers Fenerbahçe in Istanbul

Nottingham Forest delivered a decisive blow to Fenerbahçe at the Chobani Stadium in Istanbul, in a UEFA Europa League match that ended in a clear victory for the visitors. Despite Fenerbahçe enjoying a larger share of possession (57%), it was Nottingham Forest who demonstrated greater effectiveness in front of goal.

The match began at a frenetic pace, marked by an early yellow card for M. Skriniar of Fenerbahçe. The first goal of the match came in the 21st minute, scored by Murillo, assisted by E. Anderson, giving Nottingham Forest the lead. Fenerbahçe struggled to respond, but before halftime, Igor Jesus, assisted by M. Gibbs-White, extended the lead for the visitors in the 43rd minute.

The second half began in a similar fashion, with Nottingham Forest showcasing their offensive strength. M. Gibbs-White, this time assisted by Igor Jesus, scored the third goal for his team in the 50th minute. Despite Fenerbahçe’s efforts to react and the multiple tactical changes, they failed to turn their possession into goals. The match was also marked by a series of yellow cards for Fenerbahçe players, including D. Tedesco, J. Oosterwolde, C. Soyuncu, and Fred. Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, received no cautions.
