Nottingham Forest player ratings - low marks as Reds suffer Europa League horror show vs Braga - Nottinghamshire Live
A missed penalty, own goal, and red card all contributed to Nottingham Forest’s 1-0 defeat, leaving them likely to face the Europa League play-off round.
- Nottingham Forest suffered a 1-0 defeat at Braga, leaving Europa League automatic qualification hopes all but over after a second-half own goal by captain Ryan Yates.

- Forest sit on 11 points and face an uphill league task, needing seven teams to drop points to reach the top eight while almost certain to enter the Europa League play-off round.
