It has been eight hours and 26 minutes since Nottingham Forest scored at the City Ground.

Had it not been for Ezri Konsa's excellent block to thwart Liam Delap in stoppage time, that run would have been broken but, instead, Forest are still looking for a first home goal since May.

It was only in the final few minutes against Arsenal that they really threatened, with Chris Wood having a shot blocked and Murillo shooting over.

Defeat, following Noni Madueke's deflected effort, also leaves them pointless at home and keeps Oliver Glasner's side in the Premier League's relegation zone.

"It feels very harsh, it feels unfair, but we have to accept it. We are missing some bits. The performance in many parts was very good. Giving them one shot on target, it's deflected, and we lose feels even tougher," said Glasner.

"What I take from today's game is another frustrating result, but we can be very tough to play against. In every single game we create moments where we can score.

"We will get the results we all feel we deserve."

Defeat keeps Forest in the bottom three of the Premier League ahead of Friday's trip to Ipswich.

Glasner added: "I have no doubts in what we are doing. It has proven right so often, and I am really confident we will go where we want to be. We are not there today but we will be."
