First half action

  • The Mar 15, 2026 match was a cautious start from both sides. Forest needed a point to escape the relegation zone; Fulham were content to sit deep.
  • Ibrahim Sangare had an early chance for Forest, saved by the Fulham keeper. No breakthrough before halftime.

Second half turning points

Player performances

  • Forest’s Ibrahim Sangare was energetic in midfield; Fulham’s Antonee Robinson provided width. Both were key in the 0-0 stalemate.
