Nottingham Forest took another big step toward promotion from the Sky Bet Championship on Tuesday night.
The Reds made the trip to south Wales to take on a Cardiff City side still with an outside shot of the play-off places.
Sabri Lamouchi’s men ended a run of three games without a victory as Tiago Silva’s second-half strike secured a 1-0 win over the Bluebirds.
The goal came four minutes after the restart, when Lewis Grabban cut back for Silva to fire home a lovely opener.
With Brentford slipping up away to Luton Town and Leeds United and Fulham not in action last night, Forest took full advantage.
The Reds moved to within three points of Leeds after the victory and created a six-point gap in the play-off places.
Here’s how some of the Forest players reacted after the game.
With Leeds in action tonight (Wednesday) the gap could be restored to six points.
The Reds aren’t back in action until Monday night, when they make the trip north to take on struggling Middlesbrough.
