‘Aston Villa Star Impressed by Nottingham Forest’s Defensive Prowess’
Moussa Diaby, an Aston Villa star, commended Nottingham Forest after their 2-0 victory at the City Ground. Despite playing alongside Ollie Watkins, Diaby was contained by the Forest defense, and Villa struggled to create clear scoring opportunities.
Diaby was particularly impressed with Forest’s performance, especially their defensive efforts. He acknowledged the Reds’ solid defensive display and expressed his respect for how they approached the game.
Diaby stated, “Today was not a good game. We conceded the first goal too early… Nottingham Forest played well in defense. We are very fast on the counter-attack, but they defended well, making it very difficult to find space behind.”
Considering Forest’s recent form and the fact that they were facing the league’s top goal-scorers, this performance deserves recognition. Diaby’s remarks highlight the Reds’ exceptional defensive work throughout the game, stifling Villa’s attack and earning credit for their performance.
