Aina and Awoniyi in Action as Nottingham Forest Secure Biggest-Ever Premier League Win with 7-0 Thrashing of Brighton
Nottingham Forest recorded their biggest-ever Premier League victory on Saturday, demolishing Brighton 7-0 at the City Ground with Nigeria’s Ola Aina and Taiwo Awoniyi in action.
Nuno Espírito Santo’s side responded emphatically to their 5-0 loss to Bournemouth last weekend, putting in a dominant display to remain third in the league table. The win moves them level on points with Arsenal.
Nigerian duo Ola Aina and Taiwo Awoniyi featured for Forest, with Aina playing the full match while Awoniyi came on as a substitute in the 82nd minute.
The result marks Forest’s largest winning margin in their seven seasons in the Premier League.
Chris Wood starred in the rout, taking his league goal tally to 17 for the season—behind only Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland.
Forest’s commanding performance sends a strong message to their rivals as they continue their push for a top-four finish.
