Everton delivered a dramatic late blow to Nottingham Forest as they snatched a stoppage-time winner to claim a crucial 1-0 victory at The City Ground. The Toffees, fighting to steer clear of the relegation zone, showed resilience throughout the match and were rewarded for their persistence in the dying moments, breaking the hearts of the home crowd.

Nottingham Forest, who had gone nine games unbeaten at home, appeared to be heading for another solid result. However, their lack of cutting edge in the final third ultimately cost them, as they struggled to convert possession into clear chances. Everton, meanwhile, remained disciplined and waited patiently for their moment to strike.

The result is a huge boost for Sean Dyche’s men, who continue their fight for Premier League survival. For Forest, it’s a disappointing end to a strong home run and a reminder of the fine margins in top-flight football. As the season approaches its final stretch, both teams know that every point is crucial — and Everton’s last-gasp winner could prove vital.
