Nottingham Forest Demolishes Brighton 7-0 in Stunning Victory

Nottingham Forest delivered a remarkable performance, thrashing Brighton 7-0 at the City Ground. While Chris Wood claimed a hat-trick and man of the match honors, it was Morgan Gibbs-White who truly stole the show in this record-breaking demolition of Brighton.

Gibbs-White was instrumental in Forest’s dominance, scoring one goal, assisting another, winning a penalty, and putting on a masterclass display in his 100th appearance for the club. His performance was so outstanding that Brighton’s Tariq Lamptey resorted to wrestling him to the ground for the penalty that completed Wood’s hat-trick.

The floodgates opened when Gibbs-White’s cross was turned into his own net by Lewis Dunk. Gibbs-White then scored a bullet header from an Anthony Elanga corner. Wood added two more goals before halftime, with Elanga providing the assists.

In the second half, Wood completed his hat-trick from the penalty spot after Lamptey fouled Gibbs-White. Neco Williams scored the sixth goal following a goalmouth scramble, and substitute Jota Silva capitalized on a goalkeeping error to make it 7-0.

This emphatic victory boosts Nottingham Forest’s Champions League aspirations and leaves Brighton shell-shocked. The result will be remembered as one of Forest’s most impressive performances in recent years, with Gibbs-White cementing his status as a key player for the club.
