Match Timeline & Momentum
Commentary
Four of Delap's 14 Premier League goals have come against Aston Villa, and this one has really sparked Forest's best spell of the match. As things stand, they're on track to claim maximum points for the first tiem this term - Opta's live win predictor now gives them a 61% chance.
Though a dangerous low cross by Munoz fails to find anyone in the box, Nottingham Forest regain possession and Ndoye finds himself in some space. From more than 20 yards out, he unleashes a rising shot that comfortably clears Villa's crossbar.
Lindelof just about deals with Delap on the right byline, after Munoz raids up the right flank and plays his centre-forward in. Whatever Glasner said at the interval has certainly worked!
Sparking Forest's opening goal, Murillo plays the ball to Delap, who brilliantly does the rest.
GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL!!!! FOREST LEAD 1-0! Delap drills into the bottom-left corner! After Villa lose possession in midfield, Nottingham Forest's new striker picks up the ball and drives forward. Allowed to let fly from 20 yards, he leaves Suzuki with absolutely no chance! What a start to the second half!
Aston Villa kick off, and we're back under way in Birmingham!
