THERE GOES THE FINAL WHISTLE!
All over as Jack Grealish is booked with tempers flaring before Elanga and Boly see shots halted by Ederson. Despite having an extra man, City see it out strongly for a sixth straight win of the campaign. Brilliant then robust after Rodri's needless red card.

WE ARE INTO SEVEN MINUTES OF ADDED TIME
CIty almost over the winning line. Forest facing up to the harsh fact that the finishing has not been there today. Bad-tempered match in the second half.

FODEN GIVEN A HUGE ROUND OF APPLAUSE
Brilliant display from him today as he is replaced by his England team-mate Jack Grealish for these closing moments.

FOREST LACKING KILLER INSTINCT
Origi played in by Elanga, but he rushes the shot as the goal opens up and hits it weakly at a few scrambling blue shirts. Sums it up really for Forest. Plenty of the ball, but not doing anything with it.

NOT A BAD TIME-OUT FOR CITY
Have been forced to do some stout defending in this second half, but Josko Gvardio is down needing treatment and the delay comes at a nice time.

ANOTHER BOOKING IS SIGNED, SEALED AND DELIVERED
Origii couldn't really see what was coming behind him, but Josko Gvardio goes down holding his head. High boot perhaps? But not sure the boot connected with his head. Anyway. City still 2-0 up.

ENGLAND MANAGER IN THE STANDS
Wonder what Gareth Southgate has made of this today? Must be thrilled with the contribution of Phil Foden for City despite this scrap of a second half.

GLORIOUS CHANCE TO KILL IT FOR CITY
Haaland a figure of frustration as he can't get over the volley to convert the Ake ball across the face of goal. Just a bit too high, and the efforts flies high and wide.

MANGALA GOES INTO THE BOOK
Foden showing his class to keep the ball before he is taken out of the action late by Mangala, who protests his innocence as he is yellow carded.

WALKER EARNS A FOUL FOR CITY
Takes the pressure of the English champions for a bit as Walker is fouled at the back stick by Gibbs-White.
74'
CITY BACK IN THE TRENCHES
Couldn't see this game developing into such a contest after the first 15 minutes. Akanji with a vital piece of defending for City to deny Gibbs-White the shot at goal.
72'
RODRI TAKES LEAVE OF HIS SENSES
As soon as you raise your hands to an opponent, you run the risk of a red card. A harsh lesson for Rodri today. Needless too.
70'
FOREST CONTINUE CHASING A GOAL
This time it is Elanga who drives the ball at goal, but easy enough take for Ederson. Much, much better from Forest using the extra man.
68'
FOREST TRYING TO PICK HOLES IN CITY
Hudson-Odoi decides to try to pick out man of the moment Gibbs-White with the cross, but just a bit too much pace on the delivery as the ball races out for a City goalkick. Was certainly the right idea.
66'
GIBBS-WHITE ON THE BOOS
From the City fans, who are obviously unhappy with the Forest man's role in Rodri's red card. Football fans traditionally love a figure to blame. Pep out of his box urging the home crowd to become more involved in this match.
64'
BRILLIANT FOREST DEFENDING
Gonzalo Montiel with a fabulous piece of defending to make the block from the Foden shot at goal. City carving open the visitors on the break.
62'
FOREST FIRE ANOTHER SHOT AT THE CITY GOAL
New signing Nicolás Domínguez drags a shot a few yards wide from another corner delivered via Gonzalo Montiel. The mood and momentum of this contest has changed since Rodri's red card.

THIS GAME IN DANGER OF GETTING OUT OF HAND
Has had a real edge to it since the restart with Taiwo Awoniyi chipping the ball over the bar when he seemed set to pull one back. The Forest forward then brushes heads with Ederson in the City goal. And Taylor books both men. Silly and needless, but Forest have certainly irked the champions.
