Nottingham Forest pulled off a remarkable feat in the Europa League quarterfinals, defeating Porto 1-0 to eliminate one of the tournament’s biggest favorites. The English side took command early, when Bednarek was sent off in the 8th minute, and Gibbs-White scored just moments later. Despite enjoying a numerical advantage for almost the entire match, Forest endured more pressure than expected, as Porto twice struck the woodwork. The Tricky Trees secured their return to a European semifinal after 42 years, setting up a showdown with Unai Emery’s Aston Villa.
