Norwich City 2-1 Nottingham Forest: Emiliano Buendia strikes as Canaries regain top spot in Championship

Norwich City regained top spot in the Championship as Emi Buendia's deflected strike earned victory over a Nottingham Forest side who have now picked up just one point in six matches.

Buendia fired home via the unfortunate Joe Worrall just four minutes after substitute Anthony Knockaert had drawn the Reds level with a teasing cross that eluded everyone and found the net.

Forest almost broke the deadlock in the first half through a Joe Lolley shot that hit the post, but the Canaries went ahead in first-half injury time when Jacob Sorensen found the net with a low strike.
