Hull City 1-1 Nottingham Forest: Dramatic draw sees Reds finish fourth

Nottingham Forest will face Sheffield United in the Championship play-off semi-finals after a much-changed Reds were held to a dramatic draw by Hull City to finish fourth in the table.

Brennan Johnson appeared to have sealed a third-place finish for Forest with an injury-time penalty, after Sam Surridge was fouled by Tom Huddlestone.

But Lewie Coyle remarkably snatched a draw for the Tigers with a cross that somehow beat Reds goalkeeper Brice Samba.

Forest 's failure to beat 19th-placed Hull, and Huddersfield's 2-0 win against Bristol City, saw the Reds drop from third on the final day of the regular season.
