Nottingham Forest put on a dominant performance at the City Ground, where they defeated Malmö 3-0 to boost their chances of securing a top-eight finish in the Europa League.
Goals from Ryan Yates, Arnaud Kalimuendo, and Nikola Milenkovic secured the victory, although Forest could have easily scored more throughout the match.
Manager Sean Dyche expressed his satisfaction with the crucial three points earned and is now focused on their upcoming home game against Brighton on Sunday.
A rotated squad was fielded for the match against Malmö, providing valuable playing time for several players eager to make an impression. Brian Laws, who provided co-commentary for BBC Radio Nottingham, was especially pleased to see Kalimuendo score his first goal for Forest since joining from Rennes in the summer transfer window.
Kalimuendo, who seized the opportunity to start the game, will now look to build on this success and gain confidence for future matches. Adjusting to a new club, especially one that has undergone several managerial changes early in the season, can be challenging. However, with Dyche’s support and the chance to continue showcasing his talent on the field, Kalimuendo is determined to stay on the right path and contribute to Forest’s success in the busy season ahead.
