00:00Just clear of the relegation zone, while Fenerbahce played out a five-goal thriller on the north coast of Turkey
00:06at Trabzon Spina is back in defence after serving a European suspension, while Archie Brown returns to the bench after
00:12recovering from a toe ligament injury.
00:14No such charges, two changes from the last game eight days ago. Murillo is back in defence after missing the
00:19last two games with a calf injury.
00:22Listen to the noise around this place. A first ever meeting of Fenerbahce in Nottingham Forest comes at a critical
00:28point.
00:28Two games, two legs, and only one of these teams will go through to the round.
00:32Fenerbahce with another set-piece opportunity. Hutchinson towards Milenkovic, out by Skrinja.
00:41Looping one by Anderson. Edison comes. Hudson-Odoi, looping, but not dropping it off.
00:49There's 50,000 here tonight, and the vast majority of them making a lot of noise right at this moment.
00:55That's a good ball in and a free header as well.
01:02That was a little bit careless.
01:05Shalief, there were a lot of clubs after his signature in January when they knew that he was available.
01:12Murillo hits that one and finds the corner.
01:16What a goal for Nottingham Forest.
01:29Only his second goal this season, and he's scored at two iconic stadiums.
01:34It's the first at Anfield against Liverpool, and here at the Shuklu Tsalacholu against Fenerbahce.
01:42The Vitor Pereira era is off and running.
01:46In unlikely circumstances, the centre-half, running and running.
01:53This is what he's got in his locker.
01:55So powerful.
01:56He flicks there off the Achilles of Skrinja,
01:59and maybe picked up pace as it went beyond the goalkeeper, Edison.
02:05Williams to Hudson-Odoi.
02:09There's a man down in the middle.
02:11Meanwhile, Igor Jesus is motoring.
02:14Igor Jesus, great feet!
02:16And it was nearly a Brazilian double.
02:19It's the Premier League team here.
02:21You have the lead and want to extend it.
02:24Nico Williams will try and do that.
02:26Hits his own man.
02:27And over by Igor Jesus.
02:31Anderson is going to take it.
02:34This is their seventh for the first half.
02:40They get the flick.
02:41It's in.
02:41It's 2-0.
02:43And it's their Europa League hitman, Igor Jesus again.
02:53Well, that really will upset things inside this stadium.
02:57Whose fans thought they were wronged
02:59by not having a penalty a couple of minutes ago.
03:01And now it's their former head coach,
03:03Vitor Pereira, in his first game in charge.
03:08And has seen his side take a two-goal advantage.
03:13Gibbs White with the flick.
03:15And a great climb by the Brazilian.
03:21That's now seven goals in the Europa League this season.
03:25Fluffy that's good is for the first half.
03:28Murillo, who got the scoring started.
03:31Gibbs White.
03:33Flashes one past the upright.
03:40Will be interesting to see Forrest's approach after half-time
03:42as to whether they go for broke and get more goals.
03:45They might have another before the first half is done.
03:48Hutchinson.
03:55Well, they are beaming right now.
03:57Looking full of confidence, full of beans.
04:02Fenerbahce just wants to get back inside
04:03and hear that half-time whistle.
04:16And there is the half-time whistle.
04:19The first half dominated by the visiting side.
04:22All game in the Super Cup final against Galatasaray.
04:28So they've changed two down their left side.
04:32I'm hoping there's some kind of response here at Fenerbahce.
04:36Domenico Tedesco was not happy in the first half.
04:40And they might have a great start to the second
04:43because already they've had a shot.
04:46And then it's Sharif, who sees his effort tips over
04:48for a corner by Ortega.
04:52Just about stayed onside as well.
04:54Ainder playing him on.
04:56Sat up nicely.
04:59A multiple title winner in England
05:01with Manchester City.
05:06Hudson-Odoi.
05:09Nice pick-out to Gibbs-White.
05:11Straight to Edison,
05:12who does really well to react
05:13and pick up the loose ball.
05:17It's possibly still there for Fenerbahce,
05:19but had they conceded a third goal,
05:21it might have been all over.
05:35Now,
05:36he goes Jesus
05:37and Gibbs-White again.
05:39This time it's in.
05:40It's 3-0.
05:45Fenerbahce for test.
05:47But it's the Nottingham Forest talisman
05:50who's done it.
05:53Three goals.
05:54Three goal scorers.
05:56And maybe the round of 16 awaits already.
06:02Well, it was a hopeful lump forward.
06:05Gibbs-White started the move
06:07and then went again.
06:09Although,
06:11was Igor-Jesus onside or not?
06:13A question mark about Gibbs-White after that as well.
06:16Was he ahead of the ball?
06:19A couple of questions here
06:21for Villa-Lucas.
06:23You can see the challenge coming there
06:25from Juksek.
06:33Semedo.
06:34Oh, that's a nonchalent touch on there.
06:37Something clever by Marco Asensio.
06:42Andoy.
06:45Nelson Payne didn't cover himself in glory.
06:48It's better that time to tip it over.
06:50It's another corner.
07:01Two giants of this footballing hotbed of a city
07:04in continental competition.
07:06Can't ask for five-two winners against Juventus,
07:08but a heavy home defeat here for Fenerbahce
07:11and Dominguez
07:13should have made it four.
07:15The Knights in their own penalty area.
07:22Lacking communication.
07:25The Nottsley Forest really should have made them pay.
07:35James Scott right...
07:37Even if it is a three-and-a-half-hour journey,
07:40it will be pretty satisfactory for them.
07:44Nico Williams.
07:46Still time for a fourth.
07:47And he nearly got it.
07:48Smart save by Edison.
07:52The Brazilian was going one way,
07:54but was smartly backed down to tip it behind.
08:02Halfway through,
08:03but Nottingham Forest
08:04almost in the next round already,
08:06you have to say.
08:07With a home leg to come in England next week,
08:09here tonight,
08:11on his return to Fenerbahce.
08:12The
08:21Fenerbahce.
08:22You
