Steve Hodge
Former England and Forest midfielder on BBC Radio Nottingham
It's a brilliant finish, I spoke to [Birmingham City boss] Lee Bowyer before the game and they tried to get Davis in the January transfer window, that's how big that goal is, it could have been their goal.

Swansea 0-0 Derby

BBC Sport Wales at the Swansea.com Stadium
There's a lively atmosphere at the Swansea.com Stadium, where the home fans are still celebrating their 4-0 win at Cardiff - the first time a team has completed the league double in the south Wales derby.
The mid-table Swans would appear to have little to play for in terms of league position, whereas Derby still have a faint hope of escaping relegation.
Wayne Rooney's side start the day nine points adrift of safety. It would be some escape act.
Keinan Davis (5 mins)
Red-hot Nottingham Forest have started in style against Birmingham City.
Keinan Davis meets a wonderful pass from Brennan Johnson and lets rip from about eight yard out across goal.

The Reds have made strong start to the game and have Blues pegged back a little.

Plenty to play for at the top and bottom of all three divisions.
Port Vale v Oldham (15:00 BST)
Calvin Andrew
Ex-Rochdale, Mansfield and Port Vale forward on Squad Goals
Three is the magic number. Third from top host third from bottom.
Port Vale are currently occupying the final automatic promotion spot and a win today could see them go second and add to their hopes of League One football next season.
They’ll be fighting for all three points against a ‘back on the survival track’ Oldham Athletic.
They’re still just three points clear of the relegation zone but had a huge boost by beating relegation rivals Stevenage 1-0 last Saturday.
It was a thrilling 3-2 Oldham victory when the two teams met back in November and with crucial points for both teams on the line today, I think this is definitely one to watch.
It is tense at the bottom of League Two, with Scunthorpe in danger of being relegated from he English Football League.
They will consigned to the drop if they are beaten by Mansfield Town and Oldham Athletic, who are at Port Vale, and Barrow, away at Crawley Town, both win.
Port Vale will be looking for fourth straight win, having extended their unbeaten run to seven with victory at Salford in midweek.
Second-placed Exeter City will be looking to extend their own seven-game unbeaten run when they face Carlisle.
AFC Wimbledon v MK Dons (15:00 BST)

Presenter, Squad Goals
This is the standout fixture in League One with everything around this game both on and off the pitch.
As the division’s form side, MK Dons come to Plough Lane 14 unbeaten and with a chance to top the table.
AFC Wimbledon on the other hand are battling for League One survival and are looking to end a winless run which stretches back 23 games.
There’s of course, much more to this tie. It’s the first time fans will be at the new Plough Lane to see their team host the side that was allowed to be rebadged from Wimbledon to Milton Keynes and moved 60 miles up the road, principally because it was deemed unsustainable to keep the club in Merton.
The fans formed a phoenix club, rose through the leagues in nine years and now, 20 years on from that decision, host MK in Merton at their own home, in front of their fans. ‘Rivalry’ isn’t quite the right word to describe this but there’s certainly a lot of emotion surrounding this fixture.
On the pitch, and speaking on the 72+ Football Daily podcast, new AFC Wimbledon boss, Mark Bowen, says he’s missing experienced heads in his young side as he looks for his first win in charge. It’s been a struggle to compete in the division, especially since selling striker Ollie Palmer to non-league Wrexham in January and that was after losing 22-goal Joe Piggot to Ipswich last summer.
His players are going to have to step up and be counted today against a formidable MK Dons side that boast Scott Twine and Mo Eisa, who have 27 goals between them.
Liam Manning’s side are coming to the boil at the perfect time and with eight wins in their past 10 games, confidence couldn’t be higher as they seek to reach the Championship.
It’s high stakes for both teams and for all the noise and emotion around this match, three points for either side will be absolutely vital.
Crewe Alexandra are bottom of League One, 13 points from safety and are staring relegation in the face with just five games remaining.
The Alex could be relegated to League Two after today's trip to Doncaster if results go against them.
Wins for Morecambe and Fleetwood - both on 38 points in the final two safe places - would relegate them back to League Two regardless of what they do at Eco-Power Stadium.
League One leaders Wigan Athletic travel to 18th-placed Lincoln City looking to extend their seven-game unbeaten run.
Meanwhile, relegation-threatened AFC Wimbledon host second-placed MK Dons who are on a 14-game unbeaten run.

And there is much, much more to come in League One and League Two...
There is a smorgasbord more of action to come in the Championship as 19th-placed Bristol City host bottom side Peterborough, who could slip 13 points from safety if they fail to triumph at Ashton Gate.
Play-off hopefuls QPR, who started the day five points adrift of the top six, travel to Preston North End who will again need to win to keep their own outside chances of securing a play-off spot alive.
Inconsistent West Brom host Stoke City just three days after beating second-placed Bournemouth to just about keep their hopes of a Championship top-six finish intact.
There will plenty riding on the result at The Den, as tenth-placed Millwall look to boost their play-off prospects against a Barnsley side battling to avoid relegation.
