Nottingham Forest boss Nuno fumes after Brighton defeat: It was a red card

Nottingham Forest boss Nuno was fuming after their 1-0 defeat at Brighton

The win came via an own goal scored by Forest's Andrew Omobamidele, with Nuno upset Jakub Moder avoided a red card for Brighton.

Nuno later said: "Disappointed. I felt we would get much more from the game. There's a lot of issues that we have to improve, one of them is making real our opportunities and trying to finish them. Tough game but I think we deserved more.

"We played a good team with a lot of possession but we limited the chances they created. We should have done better with what we created.

"It is a red card. It is week after week I am trying to avoid... but you go back to the dressing room and see us as professionals... week after week. Week after week. What is going on? Someone wants to put us down? We received the referees they apologise, they make mistakes. VAR stops the game, it is a clear red card. It is week after week. That is enough.

"We come to a point that we try to understand, we don't judge them, terrible mistakes costing us points. You go into the dressing room and say 'let's keep on going' but it is enough. We want better decisions."

He added, "We have enough fuel. We will fight until the end. Everybody is fighting, but we have to say something and ask for good decisions. It is a clear red card. A clear red card. Someone tell me it is not a red card, am I saying something really stupid? I am just being honest."
