Relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest grabbed a precious point at Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday, thanks to two goals from Nigerian forward Taiwo Awoniyi.
Steve Cooper's battling side earned the early advantage when Brazilian defender Renan Lodi lofted a ball into the Chelsea area in the 13th minute.
Raheem Sterling, lively from the start of the match, scored Chelsea's 51st-minute equaliser with a simple close-range shot from a pinpoint cross by defender Trevoh Chalobah.Conor Gallagher, Joao Felix and Enzo Fernandez all had second-half efforts saved or blocked and Sterling doubled his tally in the 58th minute with a fine curling shot after a surging run and pass from Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
"The most important thing was to get the goals and that brought us into the game," Awoniyi told Premier League Productions. "Many times we sat off but that's the game plan and that's what we did." He said that as a striker he wanted to score every game but he could not achieve that without his team mates. "If they don't bring the ball into the box, there is no way I can get the chance to score so it is all teamwork," he added.
