Danny Welbeck’s winner kept Forest firmly in the dogfight after Morgan Gibbs-White had cancelled out Diego Gomez’s early opener for the Seagulls. “The performance, the first half was difficult,” said Pereira, who has lost both of his Premier League matches since becoming Forest’s fourth head coach of a turbulent campaign. Gomez lashed a volley from an unlikely angle through the legs of defender Murillo and past Matz Sels in the Forest goal. Eight minutes later Forest were level thanks to fabulous goal from Gibbs-White. However, barely two minutes had elapsed when Brighton went back ahead after Forest failed to deal with Kaoru Mitoma’s cross.
