'Magic atmosphere' - Nottingham Forest fan cam captures emotions after win over Derby County

Nottingham Forest fans marvelled at the performance of Tiago Silva - and the atmosphere in the City Ground - as they gave their verdict on the 1-0 win against Derby County.

The Reds were deserved victors as Lewis Grabban won it in the 56th minute with his seventh goal of the season when he pounced on Jayden Bogle's error to beat Kelle Roos.

Afterwards, Nottinghamshire Live's Dan Rolinson spoke with fans outside the City Ground to get their thoughts on the game as many praised Tiago Silva and the electric atmosphere in the stadium.

They were hugely impressed by Silva's contribution as the Portuguese midfielder ran the game.

Forest's goal came from Bogle's terrible error when his square ball was picked off by Grabban, who slotted past Roos first time from the edge of the box before the keeper could set himself.

The hosts might have gone further ahead when Ameobi saw two efforts blocked before Joe Lolley's left-footed effort was deflected wide.

Lawrence was perhaps lucky to stay on the pitch for his 70th minute lunge on Yuri Ribeiro, for which he was only booked.

Derby had rarely threatened in the second half but should have equalised when Marriott met a header in the 76th minute, only to scuff his shot from six yards out with Samba able to dive on the ball.
