USMNT star Gio Reyna provides massive assist in first start for Nottingham Forest in relegation candidates’ vital clash against Wolves

Gio Reyna provided a much-needed assist from a corner kick, helping Nottingham Forest level the score at 1-1 against Wolves.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Reyna was handed his first start since joining Nottingham Forest in the winter transfer window, and the American made sure to make his mark toward the end of the first half. Reyna’s corner kick was headed home by Morgan Gibbs-White, who canceled out Matheus Cunha’s opener to send the two teams into the locker room level at 1-1.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Reyna had played extremely sporadically since joining Forest, having signed on loan from Borussia Dortmund after a tough start to the season in Germany. He’s fared no better in England so far, but Saturday’s start was his first real chance to impress in extended minutes.

The American has seemingly seized the chance, providing an assist that may just be crucial for Forest’s hopes of staying in the Premier League.
