In addition to reaching 100 goal involvements in the English top flight (89 goals and 11 assists), Wood has matched a feat last accomplished in the 1994-95 campaign.

 

He is now the second Nottingham Forest player to score 20 or more goals in a single season, following former England international Stan Collymore.

The result saw Nuno Espírito Santo's side slip to seventh place, having collected 62 points from 36 matches.
