Nottingham Forest have lifted themselves out of the Premier League relegation zone after a crucial 1-0 win at Southampton.
Taiwo Awoniyi broke the deadlock in the first half and without reply from the Saints, Steve Cooper's side have climbed up to 15th place in the league standings.
Cooper handed a debut to Gustavo Scarpa in the second half and the Brazilian impressed with his range of passing and some slick touches. Forest fans have been reacting to the win and Scarpa's cameo against Southampton on social media.
