Nottingham Forest manager, Nuno Santo has suggested that hard work, belief and helping each other gave his team the victory against Manchester United during both sides’ Premier League tie on Tuesday.
Santo also singled out Anthony Elanga for ‘special’ praise after the winger’s wonder-goal sealed a 1-0 win against Man United.
Recall that Elanga sprinted 85 metres in just nine seconds in a blistering solo effort that gave Nottingham Forest the win at City Ground.
“He’s a special boy and he gives this team his speed,” Santo said at his post-match interview after the game.
“He does it by himself and we are delighted.”
He added, “I think the game was going away from us. We had to suffer.
“Hard work, belief, helping each other, clearance on the line. It was a very hard game.”
The result leaves Nottingham Forest in third position on the Premier League table with 57 points from 30 games.
