Brentford star Ivan Toney makes 'ugly' claim after Nottingham Forest win

Brentford striker Ivan Toney admits his side weren't at their "best" with Nottingham Forest leading 1-0 for most of the game.

Danilo scored the opening goal for Forest on the brink of half-time, but in the end they were defeated 2-1. Toney netted the equaliser on 82 minutes, before Josh Dasilva rescued the three points for the Bees in stoppage time.

Speaking after the game, Toney admitted: "We didn't play our best. Sometimes you have to find a way to win and we did it ugly today.

"I think Forest are a great side, dug in well and if they stick at it they give themselves a chance of staying in the league."

On scoring the first goal, Toney added: "Just being in the right place at the right time [is how I can keep scoring]. You score most of your goals in the box. I'm sure my team-mates will keep delivering for me.

"I wanted to get the winner and happily Josh DaSilva came on and got it for us. To be honest, no [I didn't think a goal was coming]. But I knew we had quality across the squad to come on and get it."
