Nottingham Forest (N) | FA Cup | Post Match Thread

Besides the obvious that City won and had a clean sheet, I found it to be a thoroughly enjoyable match, compared to many other matches.

No timewasting (yes, Ortega got a yellow for it, but that's normal for City, and one time O'Reilly went to the corner), surely helped by City taking the lead early. Not many situations of diving to "earn" a free kick, no niggly tackles, no snide actions, no handbags.

This is how every match should be.

Edit: Oh, and very few, if any, VAR delays
 
Rode our luck a bit second half.

The first 20-25 mins were really good. Quick passing, incisive runs, fantastic pressing.

We couldn't keep it up all match but it was good to see that side of the team is still there.

On balance, a deserved win.
