Recent news about Nottingham Forest: At the City Ground, Steve Cooper’s Reds defeated Aston Villa 2-0.
Steve Cooper, the head coach, praised the City Ground supporters for their contribution to Nottingham Forest’s return to winning ways.
Everything about the Reds’ 2-0 victory over Aston Villa, according to the Welshman, demonstrated the team “at its finest.” And that included Trentside’s amazing atmosphere.
Ola Aina and Orel Mangala’s goals ended a six-match losing streak, and the supporters helped push the players over the finish line. It was a much-needed and timely outcome, and Cooper hopes it will inspire more confidence as his revamped Forest team continues to click.
“You could tell before the game that everyone was up for it,” he said of the support his team received. “They always are but sometimes you get that feeling don’t you, where it’s like ‘OK, let’s get to work today’.
“You always want to win. I’ve spoken a lot about the journey we are on. This is our second year in the Premier League and we’ve still got a load of new players that are not so new now but they are not established. We’re in that little process and we’re trying to create a way of playing.
“It’s going to take time to really become what we want to become here. That’s not to say we will get there. It is going to take a lot of hard work.
“Good wins like this and performances like this continues the belief. I talked before the game about how anything good we’ve done over the last couple of years – because it’s been a bit of a journey – has been built on belief and togetherness and backing each other when we really need each other.
“Today was us – when I say us, I mean the supporters, the atmosphere, the ground, players – at its finest. That’s why we got the win.
