Minute
Description
76'
It's a poor attempt at a clearance from Kilman as he nods it straight down to Gibbs-White. He unselfishly sets it up for Danilo to run onto, but the midfielder curls his shot high and wide of the far top corner.
74'
Gibbs-White is caught on the ball, and Neves manages to keep it alive by flicking it onto Podence. He coolly takes it around Freuler's sliding challenge, but then sends a wild shot high and wide from range.
72'
Wolves are still waiting for their first shot on target, but they're pushing forward again here. Nunes and Sarabia link up well down the right, but neither of them can pick out a cross.
70'
Another Wolves attack fizzles out and Forest break quickly once more. Gibbs-White slides into the left of the box for Danilo, but he drags at his shot on the turn, sending it well wide of the far post.
67'
J. Worrall enters the game and replaces E. Dennis.
Forest are making a defensive change in response to Wolves' attacking ones. Dennis goes off for Worrall.

Gibbs-White swings another free-kick in from the left, and it's over everyone. Dawson clears it under no pressure and gives it straight to Johnson, who blazes over from the right of the box.
58'
Sarabia makes a great run down the right, but when he tries to knock it back to Traore, he gifts it straight to Danilo. He drives forward before switching it to Gibbs-White, but his long-range shot is straight at Sa.
56'
Forest are convinced they should have a throw-in, but the linesman judged that Traore kept it in. He's then toppled over by Niakhate, and the hosts' frustration only grows when Wolves are given a free-kick.
54'
A VAR check agrees with the referee's onfield decision of no penalty, but the game can't restart just yet. Chris Kavanagh is called over to the sidelines by the fourth official because an argument took place there too, and both teams have a member of their backroom staff sent off.
52'
There are more shouts from the Wolves fans and players for a penalty as Traore goes to ground this time. Felipe had a hand on his shoulder and gave him a small nudge from behind, but the referee waves the claim away.
50'
Two Wolves players end up on the floor as Neves swings the free-kick in, and they're asking for a penalty. There wasn't much in either challenge and the referee shakes his head.
49'
H. Toffolo gets yellow.
Toffolo is booked early in the second half after catching Traore with a late challenge.
48'

45'
João Moutinho gets yellow.
The yellow card is out again, this time for Moutinho, who slides in and clips Dennis from behind during his fast break.
44'
Wolves just can't keep hold of the ball when they venture out of their own half at the moment. Forest easily win it back, and Dennis breaks on the counter.
42'
Rúben Neves gets yellow.
Frustration is starting to show on both teams now as Dennis tries to get away from Neves. The Wolves man drags him to ground and also goes into the book.
40'
B. Johnson gets yellow.
Johnson initially did well to get past Toti with the defender hanging off him, but then goes softly due to a nudge in the back. Forest are furious they don't get a penalty, and that only increases when Johnson is booked for diving.
38'
B. Johnson has scored a goal for Nottingham Forest! Assist by Danilo.
JOHNSON SCORES! It starts down the left, with Gibbs-White playing a one-two with Danilo, who spreads it out to Johnson after ghosting past Neves. The winger lets it bounce before firing a low shot past Sa from a tight angle and into the bottom corner. 1-0 Forest!
Wolves had a few opportunities to clear it before it got out to Johnson, including Neves, who saw it knocked past him by Danilo with ease.
35'
R. Freuler gets yellow.
Freuler clumsily drags Nunes to ground, and he's shown the first yellow card of the game.

34'
Forest are able to get out of their own half, and they win a free-kick of their own down the right. Gibbs-White swings it in, and Kilman half-clears it, but Dennis can't pick out a team-mate with his cross.
32'
Wolves win a free-kick down the right when Traore is tripped, and Moutinho goes over to take it. He gets too much on his cross though, and it sails harmlessly over everybody in the box.
28'
Traore knocks it through to Semedo down the right and he whips it into the far post. Williams chests it to Navas, not realising Nunes is behind him. The defender bravely gets down to head it away, colliding with the keeper in the process.
25'
Wolves are starting to up the pressure as they switch it out to Toti once more. He has three to aim for in the middle, but Felipe throws himself forward to make an important interception.
23'
It's better from Wolves here as they switch it quickly from left to right. Cunha helps it out to Semedo on the right before continuing his run into the box, but the cross is too close to Navas.
22'
Toti's throughball is cut out by Williams, but Nunes just as quickly wins it back. They link up well down the left before Mangala gets across to help shield it out for a goal-kick.
20'
Wolves are back to keeping possession, but it's all in their own half. Forest's press is causing them a lot of problems though, and the visitors can't get forward.
18'
Semedo blocks Freuler's shot, only to get back to his feet and lose out to Toffolo. He then blocks his cross, but in the scramble in the box, there are shouts from Forest for handball. Semedo's hand was down by his side when the cross hit him, and nothing's given.
16'
It's a great bit of footwork by Gibbs-White to take Lemina out of the game initially, but then he plays it behind Johnson. He manages to keep it in play, but then sees a cross blocked for a corner.
14'
Danilo's long-range shot deflected over for a corner, which is swung in by Gibbs-White. He picks out Felipe, who rises high at the far post, but none of his team-mates react quickly enough to reach his nod down.
10'
Semedo makes a good run down the right and cuts back to whip a good cross into the box towards Cunha. He's sandwiched between two Forest defenders though, and Felipe clears his lines.
6'
Wolves win a corner, but Moutinho's cross is cleared by Felipe in the middle. Johnson tries to set off a counter, but can only sort his feet out quick enough to clear it as Neves closes him down.
4'
Wolves are settling into this game with a good spell of possession here, but it's all in their own half. Dawson eventually decides to go long when he spots Cunha peel off the back of Niakhate, but the defender intercepts.
2'
Felipe cuts out Semedo's long ball over the top, and his first though is to slide it down the right for Johnson. He almost gets the better of Toti as he bursts towards the byline, but the defender cuts it out at the last moment.
1'
Johnson gets the game underway for Forest!
Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Premier League meeting between Nottingham Forest and Wolves at the City Ground!
It's a huge game at the bottom of the table, with Forest and Wolves both looking for vital points that would lift them away from the relegation zone. The hosts currently sit in 16th, just one point clear of the drop, and they're on a six-match winless run in the competition (D2 L4) since beating Leeds United 1-0 nearly two months ago. Their nine-match unbeaten run at home came to an end last time out with a 2-1 defeat to Newcastle United. Wolves are up in 13th, but only one point ahead of today's opponent. They've won just one of their last six matches (D1 L4), beating Tottenham 1-0 at home at the start of March.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST STARTING XI (4-3-2-1): Keylor Navas; Neco Willians, Felipe, Moussa Niakhate, Harry Toffolo; Remo Freuler, Danilo, Orel Mangala; Morgan Gibbs-White, Emmanuel Dennis; Brennan Johnson.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST SUBS: Joe Worrall, Taiwo Awoniyi, Sam Surridge, Wayne Hennessey, Renan Lodi, Andre Ayew, Jonjo Shelvey, Cheikhou Kouyate, Jack Colback.
WOLVES STARTING XI (4-2-3-1): Jose Sa; Nelson Semedo, Craig Dawson, Maximilian Kilman, Toti; Ruben Neves, Mario Lemina; Adama Traore, Joao Moutinho, Matheus Nunes; Matheus Cunha.
WOLVES SUBS: Nathan Collins, Hugo Bueno, Joao Gomes, Raul Jimenez, Pablo Sarabia, Diego Costa, Daniel Bentley, Daniel Podence, Pedro Neto.
The teams are out on the pitch now, with kick-off just moments away!
Cooper will be pleased with how well his side rode out the pressure from the visitors, but he will also be aware of their recent record when scoring first at home as they've lost three of the last four in which that's happened. Wolves got into some good positions but didn't manage a shot on target in the first half. Lopetegui will be looking to improve that after the break.
That's all for today, goodbye!
That point lifts Forest up to 14th, but they stay just two points clear of the drop zone. It's another big game for them next time out as they travel to Leeds United. Wolves stay in 13th, one place and point above their opponents. They host Chelsea next weekend.
