Nottingham Forest issue one-word response to Wales vs England result at World Cup

Nottingham Forest have sent a one-word response after Wales were knocked out of the 2022 Qatar World Cup by England.

Forest trio Wayne Hennessey, Neco Williams and Brennan Johnson all saw minutes for Rob Page's side but failed to make a lasting impact on the tournament as they bowed out in the group stage of the tournament.

Gareth Bale's penalty against the United States in their opening clash proved to be their only goal across their three games in Qatar. That 1-1 draw was followed by a dramatic last-gasp 2-0 defeat to Iran and a 3-0 loss to England on Tuesday night.

Nevertheless, reaching the finals for the first time since 1958 marked a huge achievement from the boys in red. And the strong Forest presence within the squad could play a huge role in the future of the team moving forward.

Forest posted a message of support on Instagram, as they captioned a picture of Williams in action against England with the word "proud" following the defeat to Gareth Southgate's men.
