Erling Haaland is getting his jersey on. Saints fans gulp.

Moussa Djenepo runs into Jack Grealish's shoulder off the ball and goes down holding his face. Gavin Bazunu kicks the ball out so he can get treatment.

Nottingham Forest responded to that equaliser by making a change. Jack Colback is on for Orel Mangala with 25 minutes remaining.

Kevin de Bruyne crosses and Jack Grealish can't get a proper head onto it. Gavin Bazunu catches the loose ball.

That was a great cross and Jimenez has a tap in and that is what you need as a centre forward when you want to kick start scoring goals.

Wolves were dominating and Forest were sitting back.

Kevin de Bruyne's cross is blocked and shouts handball. No VAR in this game and it wasn't in the box anyway so wouldn't have been checked.

Southampton striker Adam Armstrong cuts in from the left and drags a shot into the side-netting.

Nice Saints move round the box but Lyanco's cross is overhit.

Willy Boly is able to get up on his feet so that is a positive. He tries to continue but can't so limps off to be replaced by Scott McKenna. He gets a standing ovation from both the Forest and Wolves fans.

The visitors also make some changes as Daniel Podence and Matheus Cunha come on for Rayan Ait-Nouri and Joao Moutinho.

Julian Alvarez - starved of service in the first half - gets a pass exactly where he wants it. The angle is against him but he should really do better and at least hit the target.

Kevin de Bruyne is involved in City's best move within 50 seconds of coming on. He plays a wonderful through ball from midfield to Julian Alvarez, who shoots just wide of the far post.

More injury concern for Nottingham Forest because goalscorer Willy Boly is down clutching his ankle. It looks like it got caught in the ground as he made a tackle and that does not look good.

City have 45 minutes to turn this round. Saints have 45 minutes to see this out.

Kevin de Bruyne, Nathan Ake and Manuel Akanki replace Cole Palmer, Kyle Walker and Sergio Gomez at the break for Manchester City.

No Erling Haaland yet.

Word on the street (well the TV) is that Manchester City are making three half-time changes

That was a great opportunity. Gibbs-White did ever so well. A good strike and a good block.
