Forest's Champions League Hopes Hanging by a Thread 

Nottingham Forest's push for a UEFA Champions League spot took a blow after a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace on Monday. Despite a fiery start to the season, a recent slump has left them sixth in the Premier League—now trailing Chelsea, Newcastle, and a revived Manchester City.
Drama at Selhurst Park 
The match was a rollercoaster of yellow cards (eight in total!), near-misses, and VAR drama. Palace struck first with a penalty after a controversial tackle, but Forest’s Murillo saved the day just minutes later with a clutch deflection.
Last-Minute Heartbreak for Both Sides 
Palace nearly stole all three points when Eberechi Eze’s shot hit the post in the final seconds, while Eddie Nketiah’s disallowed offside goal left fans groaning.
"We fought hard, but luck wasn’t on our side," said Palace manager Oliver Glasner. Forest, meanwhile, will need a miracle to reclaim their top-four momentum. Can they turn it around?
