Super-sub Soudani rescues Nottingham Forest against Wigan Athletic

Super-sub Hillal Soudani helped Nottingham Forest force Wigan Athletic to a 2-2 draw in Saturday’s English Championship fixture.

Aitor Karanka’s men made a poor start to the game as Nick Powell's header in the second minute saw them fall behind to the hosts.

In the 10th minute, Forest responded through Matty Cash but Will Griggs soon help restore Wigan's lead on the half-hour mark.

However, Nothingham left it late as Soudani, on as a 54th-minute substitute, lashed home a rebound off Lewis Grabban’s effort.
