Nottingham Forest squandered a lead for the second successive Premier League game as they slipped to a 3-2 home defeat by Fulham in the Premier League.
Taiwo Awoniyi gave Forest the perfect start when he headed them in front after 11 minutes from a Ryan Yates corner, but Fulham struck three times in six minutes early in the second half to turn the match on its head.
Tosin Adarabioyo headed the equaliser in the 54th minute from a Willian cross and three minutes later Joao Palhinha found the top corner with a superb left-footed effort. Forest were at sixes and sevens and Fulham scored again when Harrison Reed fired home from a Bobby De Cordova-Reid cross.
Lewis O’Brien gave Forest hope with a 77th-minute effort but Steve Cooper’s side could not salvage a point.

Worrall's long ball is chested down by Surridge and he spins away from Adarabioyo while touching it out to Lingard. His cross is glanced on by Surridge, but it loops into Leno's gloves.

It's a poor corner for Fulham and McKenna nods it away before Surridge tries to help it out to Lingard for the counter. Ream crashes into him before Reed intercepts the attack, and Forest aren't happy that they don't get a free-kick.
