Brian Laws has told BBC Radio Nottingham that Nottingham Forest’s performance against Leeds United was excellent.

Forest played out a 1-1 draw with Leeds away from home at Elland Road in the Championship on Saturday evening.

Jack Robinson scored for the Reds as early as the 11th minute, but the West Yorkshire outfit restored parity through a controversial goal from Kemar Roofe in the 82nd minute.

Former Forest defender Laws has given his take on the performance produced by Aitor Karanka’s side against Leeds.

Disappointing result

Over the course of the 90 minutes at Elland Road on Saturday evening, visitors Forest had 29% of the possession, took three shots of which one was on target, and earned three corners, according to BBC Sport.

A point against Leeds at Elland Road is not a bad result for any team, but if Forest are to finish in the top six of the Championship and push for the automatic promotion spots, then they have to win such matches against the big clubs.
