Amad Diallo scored a stunning goal for Manchester United to secure a dramatic 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest. With just nine minutes left on the clock, and Forest seemingly on the brink of victory, Diallo unleashed a brilliant left-footed strike following a failed clearance by Nikola Milenkovic. In the dying moments of added time, Diallo nearly clinched the win, but Murillo managed to clear the ball off the line.

United initially took the lead through a goal by Casemiro, which sparked controversy as the corner kick leading to the goal should not have been awarded. Former Premier League referee Mike Dean commented that the ball had not fully crossed the line. Forest capitalized on the situation, with Morgan Gibbs-White equalizing with a header early in the second half, followed by Nicolo Savona scoring a second for the hosts.

United pushed to turn the game around, with Bruno Fernandes hitting the post, while Forest also had opportunities to extend their lead but failed to convert. Ultimately, Manchester United's streak of three consecutive victories came to an end, missing the chance to climb to second place in the standings and remaining in fifth. Nottingham Forest, under the guidance of Sean Dyche, stayed in 18th place.

Analysis: Manchester United displayed resilience, but defensive lapses and contentious refereeing decisions hindered their quest for three points. Nottingham Forest showed they can challenge strong teams, yet they need to improve their finishing to capitalize on scoring opportunities.
