Nottingham Forest showcases its best European scoring run since their Champions League triumph
Nottingham Forest continues its scoring rampage in the Europa League. In the first half of their playoff clash against Fenerbahce, the English side secured a comfortable 2-0 lead thanks to precise strikes from Murillo and Igor Jesus. These two goals pushed the team’s tally to 16 for the current European campaign.
Details: Nottingham’s current firepower is making club history. According to Squawka, this is the club’s most prolific performance in a major European competition since the legendary 1978/79 season. In fact, only that unforgettable year saw Nottingham Forest score more on the continental stage.
It’s worth noting that in the 1978/79 season, Nottingham Forest lifted the European Cup.
Reminder: UEFA has officially banned Fenerbahce from displaying 5 stars on their crest, deeming them unearned.
