After a tense goalless draw after extra time away against Brighton in which they were missing injured top scorer Chris Wood, Forest held their nerve in an eventful penalty shootout for the third time in a row despite Neco Williams’ miss thanks to Ryan Yates and two crucial saves from Matz Sels.
They will face Manchester City at Wembley later in April, but first must turn attentions back to their fairytale top-flight campaign that sees them currently sitting third and only four points behind second-place Arsenal after back-to-back wins, one of which was against City.
It’s a tough assignment for improving United, who have used the extra rest afforded by their lack of involvement in the FA Cup quarter-finals to recover some injured players during the latter stages of the international break.
Ruben Amorim’s men still languish down in 13th place but have restored some confidence of late with a morale-boosting unbeaten run and have a Manchester derby on the way at the weekend before their huge Europa League quarter-final date with Lyon.
Forest won at Old Trafford for the first time in almost 30 years back in December, with Wood scoring the pivotal goal in a 3-2 thriller that saw United ‘keeper Andre Onana endure a day to forget.
