Nottingham Forest managed a 1-1 draw against FC Porto in the Europa League, thanks to a bizarre own goal from Porto defender Martim Fernandes. The match saw the return of Chris Wood, who played his first game in 173 days after recovering from knee surgery. Porto took the lead early when William Gomes scored in the 11th minute, converting a diagonal ball from Gabriel Veiga. However, Fernandes's unfortunate back pass allowed Forest to equalize shortly after. Despite Porto's dominance, Forest struggled to create significant chances, with Wood only managing 11 touches in the first half. The second half saw both teams miss opportunities, but the draw leaves Forest optimistic about advancing in the tournament.
