Nottingham Forest Knock out Arsenal
Arsenal lost to Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup third round for the second time in four years thanks to Lewis Grabban’s late strike.
The visitors seemed to have turned a corner of late but were deservedly beaten 1-0. at a noisy City Ground.
Mikel Arteta made numerous changes to his line-up but there was still a strong core to his team.
Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard and the in-form Gabriel Martinelli were among those in the side.
Forest, who beat the Gunners 4-2 at the same stage in 2018 and who have not lost a home tie in six years, were physical from the start.
Debutant Kienan Davis, leading the line after completing a loan move from Aston Villa, caused problems for the visiting defence during a first half in which Arsenal failed to assert themselves.
