Today at 07:00 AM
Nottingham Forest star Elliot Anderson took to social media to celebrate after scoring his first Premier League goal in their 3-2 win over Southampton.
The 22-year-old scored the opener after just 11 minutes with a low, long-range drive, as Forest continued their march toward Champions League qualification.
Callum Hudson-Odoi then doubled their lead just before the half-hour mark after a poor attempt to play out from the back for Southampton.
Chris Wood continued his remarkable form in front of goal, making it 3-0 just before half-time for the home side.
Jan Bednarek pulled one back in the 60th minute before Paul Onuachu made it tense in added time, but it was too little, too late for the South Coast club.

The central midfielder took to Instagram to commemorate the occasion after the game, saying: “First premier league goal! And another massive win.”
Forest’s win over Southampton keeps them in third, level on points with Arsenal in second on 44, and six behind Liverpool who have a game in hand.
