Nottingham Forest continue to defy expectations with win at Brentford

Nottingham Forest stormed Brentford's fortress Saturday to climb to third in the Premier League table.

Forest won 2-0 for their third consecutive Premier League victory, condemning Brentford to their first home defeat this season.

Coming into the game, Thomas Frank's team boasted the best home record in the league, with seven wins and a draw from their eight games at the Gtech Community Stadium.

But they came unstuck against Nuno Espirito Santo's in-form team.

Ola Aina slotted home the opener towards the end of the first half and Anthony Elanga made it 2-0 early in the second period.
