Derby County 0-0 Nottingham Forest: East Midlands derby ends in stalemate as Championship play-off hopefuls cancel each other out
Frank Lampard was forced to settle for a point in his first managerial derby as his Derby County side were held to a 0-0 draw by rivals Nottingham Forest.Joe Lolley rattled the bar in the second half with a stunning drive, but chances were few and far between at Pride Park.2

Richard Keogh put in a dogged display at the back for Derby as per

Tom Huddlestone had a flash chance for the hosts when he managed to strain every sinew of his being to get a toe onto a flick on from a Harry Wilson corner, but he could not divert it towards goal.The hosts could have been down to 10 men after Jayden Bogle appeared to lead with an arm when challenging Ben Osborn for an aerial ball late in the half, but the defender only saw yellow.Scott Malone’s fourth-minute cross was only cleared as far as Jayden Bogle, whose fierce drive straight at Forest goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon.Mason Mount fired over after 13 minutes, failing to work Pantilimon after Jack Marriott’s cross from the left was laid off by Harry Wilson.2

Jack Marriott was well marshalled by the visitors

At the other end Grabban tested Scott Carson from 20 yards, although he may have been better off passing to Ben Osborn, who was clear to his left.Derby should have had a penalty after 19 minutes when Darikwa clumsily kicked Lawrence in the box, only for Stroud to wave the appeals away.Tom Huddlestone diverted a Richard Keogh header over the bar as the hosts continued to press, but it was Forest who missed the best chance of the opening period after 43 minutes when Carson stuck out a leg to thwart Grabban after the latter had been sent clear by Osborn.The visitors created the first opening of the second half, but Janko blazed over after being played in down the left by the impressive Osborn. Lawrence picked Darikwa’s pocket just after the hour mark, only to then hit his effort from 20 yards off target.Lolley produced Carson’s first save of note after 65 minutes when his curling effort from range had to be tipped over by the ex-England keeper.Wilson stung the palms of Pantilimon in the 76th minute when, having payed in Marriott down the right, he met the forward’s cross with a fierce volley.With eight minutes remaining Joao Carvalho found Lolley, who clipped the top of the crossbar with a curling effort after cutting in from the right.The hosts could have won it in stoppage time, but substitute David Nugent failed to get enough purchase on his header to seriously test Pantilimon.
