In a tightly contested Premier League encounter, Leeds United secured their first victory at Nottingham Forest's City Ground since 1972 thanks to a last-minute free-kick from Anton Stach. The decisive moment came in the 88th minute when Stach curled the ball into the top corner, leaving goalkeeper Matz Sels with no chance. Despite Forest's efforts, including missed chances from Nikola Milenkovic and Igor Jesus, Leeds' resilience paid off. The win marks a significant milestone for Marcelo Bielsa's side, who had struggled to break down Forest's defensive structure throughout the match. Forest, under new manager Oliver Glasner, faced criticism for their inability to capitalize on opportunities, particularly after several promising attacks in the first half. The result highlights Leeds' upward trajectory following last season's relegation scare, while Forest's ambitions of a top-half finish remain unfulfilled. The victory sets up an intriguing Carabao Cup rematch between the rivals, with both teams eager to assert their dominance in competitive fixtures.
