EPL: Man United Fall 2-3 To Nottingham Forest, Suffer Back-To-Back Defeats
Manchester United endured their second consecutive Premier League defeat on Saturday, losing 2-3 to Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford. Goals from Nikola Milenkovic, Morgan Gibbs-White, and Chris Wood helped Forest secure the win and climb to fifth place, just two points behind fourth-placed Manchester City. Wood's 10th league goal of the season in the 54th minute proved to be the decisive strike. This defeat marks a rare back-to-back loss for manager Ruben Amorim, only the second time in his career, with the first occurring during his time at Sporting in August 2022.
