Forest escape the drop zone at Ipswich but wonder how they didn’t win

Nottingham Forest avoided the drop zone with a 1-1 draw against Ipswich on Friday, climbing out of the relegation zone in the Premier League. The visitors could have secured more than a point at Portman Road, as they missed several chances that could have secured a win. Oliver Glasner's side dominated the game for most of the match and deservedly went ahead in the 13th minute when Neco Williams capitalized on Daniel Munoz's cross, marking his first Forest goal since April.
Morgan Gibbs-White had an effort saved by Ipswich goalkeeper Christian Walton, and Leif Davis also hacked the ball off the line. Forest thought they had a penalty in the second half when James McAtee was brought down by Issa Diop, but the VAR recommended an on-field review, resulting in a yellow card for McAtee and a free-kick for Ipswich.
Despite an energized Forest missing numerous chances to secure a win, the point propelled them above Coventry and Tottenham into 16th place, with six points overall. However, Forest still had the potential to end the weekend back in the bottom three. Ipswich finished the match in ninth place.
