Fulham manager Marco Silva was pleased with his team's clean sheet and a point against Nottingham Forest. The match was intense and fast-paced at the City Stadium. The home team scored in the second half, but the goal was disallowed for a foul, and the two sides ultimately drew in the Midlands.  

After the game, Marco Silva said, "As we expected, it was a tough game. At this stage of the season, every game becomes more difficult for every team, regardless of their goals, and it's not easy to get three points."  

"The first half was very close, and I don't think either team was able to fully get into the rhythm of the game. Our team had the best chance, with Calvin Bassy getting a completely unmarked shot from a set piece in the six-yard box. In addition, we dribbled into some dangerous areas, but due to a lack of the right decision-making and creativity, we failed to create more chances. The two teams were evenly matched in the first half."  

"Both teams are eager to win. For us, this is a very important away win with a clean sheet, which is something we've been lacking. We have another crucial game before the international break, and that game is vital because we must fight for higher goals."  

"Substitute Dan Ndoye seemed to give his team the lead by beating Bernd Leno, but the referee ruled him offside. In the second half, the game became more intense and open because of this decision, and Nottingham Forest created several chances, which led to several more good opportunities for us."  

The result of this match moved Fulham up two places in the standings to 11th, still giving them a chance to qualify for European competition. Marco Silva added: "Now that we are in this position in the standings, we naturally have to look forward. Every game should be played like a final, and we will do everything we can to advance and fight until the end of the season."
