Harrison Reed
What is going on?
Harrison Reed completes an incredible passage of play for Fulham with a first-time shot which Dean Henderson can do nothing about.
Forest have lost it completely.

Cynical from Jacob Ramsey to chop down Moussa Djenepo in midfield and the Villa midfielder is booked.

Joao Palhinha
Incredible finish!
Forest are stunned as Joao Palhinha lets fly from about 22 yards and it rockets into the top corner following a great move involving Willian and Kenny Tete.
Fulham have turned it around in the space of about three minutes.

Aston Villa 1-0 Southampton
Southampton are yet to have a shot on target. They put together a spell of possession and then Moussa Djenepo - who signed a new deal this week - commits a foul.

Phil McNulty
BBC Sport chief football writer at Villa ParkNo surprise that Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl made changes for the start of the second half as they had barely threatened Aston Villa.
Villa made nearly all the running and Hasenhuttl simply had to try to shift the momemtum back to Saints.

Tosin Adarabioyo
Fulham are back in it!
A corner is swung into the box and Tosin Adarabioyo, the 24-year-old former Manchester City player, gets up above everyone else to power it past Dean Henderson.
Two goals from corners in this game.

Nottm Forest 1-0 Fulham
The volume goes up inside the City Ground. Forest are edging the first top flight meeting between these two clubs since 1968 but there is still a long way to go. Fulham remain dangerous on the counter.

Aston Villa 1-0 Southampton
Former Villa captain Tyrone Mings does well to head away Southampton skipper James Ward-Prowse's free-kick.
Now Saints striker Che Adams curls miles wide from distance. Well there was no curl, that was one of several issues with that shot.

Nottm Forest 1-0 Fulham
A wrestling match between Willy Boly and Aleksandar Mitrovic sees the Forest defender go down heavily. The home fans don't like that. Mitrovic is telling the referee he did not do anything wrong.

Southampton players shout for a penalty as Mohamed Elyounoussi's shot hits a Villa defender. We haven't heard from VAR so it must not have been.

Morgan Gibbs-White is having a good game. He's full of pace and creativity. Fulham's defenders are struggling to deal with him.

Jon: Coutinho has probably been Villa's best player this half
Simon: Even ahead, with how Villa are playing, can anyone doubt Southampton coming back?

Aston Villa 1-0 Southampton
Southampton bring on Juan Larios for his professional debut. The 18-year-old was a deadline-day signing from Manchester City.
He and Joe Aribo replace Romain Perraud and Ibrahima Diallo.

Big chance!
Morgan Gibbs-White threads a lovely ball into the path of Brennan Johnson who looks to be through on goal but his first touch is too heavy and the chance is gone.
