Forest misfire but leave Ipswich with point after controversial draw
IPSWICH, England (AP) --- Nottingham Forest climbed out of the Premier League
drop zone after it was held by Ipswich to 1-1 at Portman Road on Friday.
On a blustery night, Forest played with the wind behind them during the first
half and it was a swirling ball that led to the opener.
Daniel Munoz threw in a high cross from the right and Neco Williams was
unmarked in the box and guided his volley into the net.
Ipswich drew level four minutes before halftime when Nikola Milenkovic was
caught in possession by Julio Enciso. The Paraguayan midfielder ran on to
calmly slot the ball past diving goalkeeper Matz Sels.
The big talking point was the 48th minute decision not to send off Issa Diop
after he felled James McAtee as he headed towards the Ipswich goal. The video
referee looked at the decision and Diop was yellow-carded.
Forest had the bulk of the chances in a gritty second period but could not make
its superiority count.
It rose to 16th place. Ipswich climbed one place into ninth.
