Gibbs-White Penalty Completes Forest Comeback as West Ham Slide Deeper into Trouble

Nottingham Forest boosted their survival hopes with a late 2-1 comeback win over a faltering West Ham United at a sparsely populated London Stadium. West Ham led through Tomáš Souček but unravelled after a disallowed Crysencio Summerville goal, allowing Nicolás Domínguez to equalise from a corner. Forest capitalised on defensive chaos when Alphonse Areola clattered into Morgan Gibbs-White, who converted the resulting penalty in the 89th minute. The defeat leaves West Ham winless in 10 matches and seven points adrift of Forest in 17th, intensifying pressure on manager Nuno Espírito Santo. Forest, managed by Sean Dyche, were far from fluent but showed resilience to end a four-game losing run, while West Ham’s lack of organisation and belief again proved costly.
