Not even a Chris Woods double could help Nottingham Forest secure all three competition points as they surrendered a 2-0 lead at home to Luton Town. A goal in each half by the big Kiwi forward had Steve Cooper's side sitting pretty before they leaked two late goals, after missing numerous opportunities to parcel the game up. The Hatters showed enormous resilience to somehow snare a point after being off the pace for much of the afternoon.

00:00 After their surprise success at Goodison Park a few weeks earlier, Luton Town
00:04 headed to the city ground with the aim of securing back-to-back away wins in
00:07 the top flight of English football for the first time since 1987. That wouldn't
00:13 be easy though against a Forest side that had lost just two of their previous
00:16 18 encounters at home and they began this one with plenty of verve.
00:20 Still there for Forest though. The opportunities kept springing up for Forest in a lively
00:25 first half. One of them's Chris Woods. Just two and a half minutes into the second
00:30 half the locals got what they wanted. Gibbs White for a langer.
00:34 Through it goes here for Woods. Charging through on Kaminski.
00:37 Finds the finish. That's what the city ground wanted to see.
00:43 The big Kiwis high involvement made him a good chance to get a double.
00:47 In towards Woods with a header.
00:49 And that might be that.
00:54 With seven minutes of regular time remaining Luton gave themselves an
00:58 unlikely lifeline.
00:59 We might roll here for Benny.
01:01 Who lashes Luton back into the game.
01:04 There was only one way for the Hatters to cap an extraordinary encounter.
01:08 What a fair one to the ball. There he is.
01:11 Magic for Luton Town.
01:14 And Nottingham Forest's two goal lead has evaporated.
01:19 On 95 minutes Wood was rightly ruled offside denying him a hat-trick and
01:24 costing Forest two valuable competition points that they should have bottled up
01:28 long before that.
