Brentford 2-0 Nottingham Forest: Oliver Glasner's side put in another concerning performance in attack as Bees win

Nottingham Forest's poor goalscoring run continued as wasteful finishing contributed to a 2-0 defeat at Brentford – and they were booed off by their own angry fans.

"What the f******* hell was that?" sang the away fans as Brentford did not need to be particularly good to overcome Oliver Glasner's side and keep track with the Champions League places.

Nikola Milenkovic's own goal after good work from Dango Ouattara gave the Bees the lead - but there were no shots on target until the 76th minute, when Igor Thiago doubled the lead via a deflected strike.

That was partly due to Forest's poor finishing. They had two golden chances to score, one in each half: James McAtee curled wide from inside the box after being given time and space to get there, before half-time substitute Ryan Yates headed over from four yards out.

Forest remain the lowest scorers in the Premier League this season with only six so far - and they wasted 14 shots before finally getting one on target in the 79th minute, a pea roller from McAtee that Caoimhin Kelleher gratefully collected.

Scoring and creating meaningful chances remains a concern for Glasner's Forest, who remain in the bottom three.
