Murillo to the rescue but injury means an early end

MURILLO earned Nottingham Forest a point in a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park last night.

Eberechi Eze gave the home side a 60th-minute lead in the Premier League clash with a penalty but Murillo equalised four minutes later, turning in a shot from Neco Williams after a corner.

But there was a furstrating end to the night for Murillo as he suffered an injury and had to be replaced in the 81st minute.

Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo made two changes to his starting 11 from last week’s home defeat against Brentford, with Ibrahim Sangare and Nicolas Dominguez coming in for Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ryan Yates.

Hudson-Odoi suffered a suspected hamstring injury in the defeat against the Bees last week and the winger was not involved at all last night - instead he was in the crowd with the fans - while Yates was on the bench.
