- Jay Dasilva scored a second-half strike that proved the decisive goal in Coventry's 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.
- Coventry City claimed their first Premier League victory since promotion back to the top flight, ending a winless start to the season.
- Igor Jesus thought he had snatched a late equaliser for Nottingham Forest, but the goal was controversially ruled out.
- The final score was Nottingham Forest 0-1 Coventry City, with Dasilva's effort separating the sides after a tight contest.
Why it matters: Coventry had zero points heading into this fixture, making this their first meaningful reward of the return season — a milestone for a promoted club establishing itself back in the top flight. For Nottingham Forest, a home defeat combined with a disallowed late equaliser deepens frustration, as Igor Jesus's ruled-out goal denies them at least a share of the points.
