  Gary Brazil refused to make excuses for Nottingham Forest's performance as they failed to follow up victory over Brighton, with Brentford cruising to a 3-2 success at the City Ground.

Forest did muster a response as substitutes Ben Brereton and Zach Clough staged a late comeback,...

  Zach Clough and Ben Brereton again came off the subs' bench to make an impact, but this time it was not enough to help Nottingham Forest to victory, on a night when Brentford's ruthlessness in front of goal earned them a 3-2 victory at the City Ground. There was to be no repeat of the morale-boosting win over Brighton, as Brentford powered their way to a 3-0 lead with two goals from Lasse Vibe and another from Jota, as the Bees stung the home side on the break three times.
