Delap Double Inspires Forest to Stunning Win Over Manchester City

Nottingham Forest pulled off the result of the Premier League weekend, beating Manchester City 3-1 at the City Ground on Sunday.

Liam Delap scored twice and Cunha added the third in a superb all-round display from the hosts, with City managing only a consolation from Cherki in reply.

The defeat is another setback for City, who slip further behind leaders Arsenal heading into the international break, while Forest climb the table after one of their finest performances of the season.

Delap delivers on the big stage

Delap's two goals capped a fearless display from Forest's attack, and his finishing on the day was the difference between two sides who both created chances.

City pay for a slow start

The champions were second best for long periods and never recovered after falling behind, leaving them with ground to make up when the league resumes on November 21.
