Anthony Elanga scored the solo goal as Nottingham Forest beat Manchester United 1-0 in a Premier League game staged on Tuesday night.
United academy graduate Elanga did the damage with an electrifying early run and a low strike that proved enough after Murillo cleared Harry Maguire’s stoppage-time effort off the line to seal third-placed Forest a 1-0 victory.

At the Emirates Stadium, Bukayo Saka celebrated his return to action with a goal as Arsenal recorded a 2-1 win against Fulham.
Saka ended his 101-day absence when he came off the bench shortly after the hour mark, and the England international had been on the pitch for just seven minutes when he doubled the Gunners’ advantage. Saka’s header, which followed Mikel Merino’s first-half opener, provided a huge lift for Arsenal on a night which saw defender Gabriel limp off in the 16th minute with a hamstring problem.
In another game of the night, Jorgen Strand Larsen’s first-half strike moved Wolves 12 points clear of the Premier League relegation zone with a 1-0 home victory over West Ham.
Vitor Pereira’s side were five points from safety when he replaced Gary O’Neil but successive league victories for the third time this season eased the Molineux club closer to safety.
