COVENTRY BEAT NOTTINGHAM FOREST 1-0 FOR FIRST PL WIN

Coventry City secured their first Premier League victory since returning to the top flight, beating Nottingham Forest 1-0 at the City Ground. Jay Dasilva scored the only goal of the match with a second-half strike. Nottingham Forest had a late equaliser from Igor Jesus disallowed following a review, a decision one source described as contentious. The result gave Coventry their first points of the season.

Sky Sports reported that the win marked Coventry's first Premier League victory in 25 years. Coventry had been promoted back to the top flight before the match, having previously competed outside the Premier League for an extended period. The disallowed Forest equaliser came late in the game and prevented what would have been a draw at the City Ground. Forest were unable to find another route back into the match after the decision.

The victory gives Coventry their opening points of the campaign following a start to the season without a win. Nottingham Forest remain without the point that the disallowed goal would have secured. Further coverage of the video assistant referee decision is expected as both clubs continue their Premier League fixtures. The BBC published a full match report on the game between Nottingham Forest and Coventry City.
