Nuno spoke to Forest TV after the game, acknowledging that his team has made progress since a few weeks of struggling, which included losses to Brentford, Manchester City, Everton, and Aston Villa. He believes that his team has improved in several areas of the game.
“We controlled the first half, had good possession, and didn't allow Palace to counterattack. We created a clear chance, but didn't convert it into a goal. In the second half, we reacted well after going behind and showed character and belief. We fought until the end, believing we could achieve more.
Nuno praised his team's performance, saying it was difficult to break down Palace's shape and that they always had the threat of a counterattack. Forest will face Leicester City on Sunday, a win being crucial for their European dreams. Nuno believes that the team's reaction to going down shows their growing confidence.
“Going behind was a big blow, but the boys' reaction was amazing. We should be proud of that. We're delighted to be in the fight for European qualification, and we'll take it game by game, starting with Leicester at the City Ground.”
