Luton boss Edwards: We showed character for Forest draw

Luton boss Rob Edwards highlighted the character shown for their 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest.

Luke Berry struck on 89 minutes to cancel out Chris Wood's opener for Forest.

Edwards said: "You need [character]. We're getting a lot of blows at the moment.

"You get knocked down on Wednesday night and it was very tough for us all and I thought we performed really well today in difficult circumstances with the bodies missing.

"It was the same lot going again after only a day and a bit's prep really. To go 1-0 was another blow that we had to try and overcome.

"We lost two more players to injury - I don't know how they are now - we had several players playing out of position but somehow we managed to find a way to get something out of the game.

"There were a couple great pieces of defending, clearances off the line. We dominated large spells but they're a big threat on the counter and any mistakes, they can punish you.

"It looked like they could have done that today but this group just keep going."
