Nottingham Forest boss Nuno ‘disappointed’ after Blackpool draw

Nottingham Forest boss Nuno admitted frustration after their 2-2 draw with FA Cup opponent Blackpool.

Forest came from 2-0 down at home to draw their Third Round tie.

Nuno said: “We are disappointed with the way we started the game and conceded. It’s not the way we want to do things. We were too slow. We conceded very easily.

“It makes our task much harder. Credit to the boys for the way we reacted. We had chances to finish the game. We have to solve it there. It will be hard, but we are ready for it.

“There were not too many spaces. We didn’t have the speed of the ball to create that. I would not say it was fatigue. We couldn’t find the right passing lines to break through Blackpool. The issue was not what we couldn’t do, but what we conceded.

“We had good chances, and there were good saves from their goalkeeper. This is positive and how we want to do things, we just need to be more clinical.”

On scrapping replays, Nuno said: “It’s something that everybody is considering because of the amount of games for everyone involved. It could be a solution.”

Happy to still be in the FA Cup though? “Of course, it’s a competition we love very much. Our fans were amazing again so we have to go to Blackpool to do it.”
