Nottingham Forest achieved a historic victory over Manchester United in the Premier League, with a 2-1 win at the City Ground, their first home win against the Red Devils in the competition's history. The match saw Rasmus Hojlund ruled out due to illness, and criticism was directed at Manchester United for defensive errors, including leaving Nicolas Dominguez unmarked in the box. Gibbs-White scored the decisive goal, contributing to United's 21st loss in all competitions for the year 2023, a troubling statistic only surpassed three times in their history. Manager Erik ten Hag faced criticism for what he termed as an 'unnecessary' loss, with his team's performance being described as inconsistent and awful by Gary Neville, and fans calling for a managerial change.
