NOTTINGHAM Forest showed character as they came from behind to earn a 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace on Monday night.
-
And head coach Nuno Espirito Santo knows more of the same will be required in the Reds' final three games as they fight to secure Champions League qualification.
Their point in the capital leaves them two behind Chelsea, who they host at the City Ground on the final day of the season.
It was Murillo who came to the rescue for Forest against the Eagles as he equalised just four minutes after Eberechi Eze had opened the scoring from the spot.
Below is a look at what Reds head coach Nuno had to say after the final whistle at Selhurst Park.
On the result and performance...
"It was positive in terms of improvement of performance from last week. Defensively we were much better. It is not easy to control Palace because they have such talented players and create problems.
"First half, we were in control and dominant and had good possession. Second half was different.
