‘Brilliant performance’ – ex-Nottingham Forest man brimming with pride as Luton Town secure 1-0 win

As quoted by BBC Sport, Luton Town coach and former Nottingham Forest midfielder Chris Cohen has praised the Hatters’ “brilliant” performance in their 1-0 win at the City Ground on Tuesday night.

The Hatters secured back-to-back wins on Tuesday night, following up their comeback victory over Sheffield Wednesday with a midweek win over Nottingham Forest.

Nathan Jones’ side secured all three points with a 1-0 win at the City Ground. Luton Town put in a gritty display against Chris Hughton’s side, with a Ryan Tunnicliffe goal the difference between the two sides.

The win takes Luton into 13th place, overtaking Preston North End after they lost 2-1 to Millwall.

Following the victory, Hatters coach Chris Cohen moved to heap praise on the side’s performance. Formerly a Nottingham Forest player, Cohen labelled Luton’s display as “brilliant” and “dogged”. Speaking with BBC Radio Nottingham, he said:

“It was a brilliant performance. We were dogged. The keeper was brilliant when he needed to be and then in front of that, everyone had a really good game.

“There wasn’t one person you could look at from the 90 minutes or the subs that came on that played below-par.

“At times in the first half, we rode our luck a little bit without being under severe pressure.

“Second half I thought it was a perfect away performance in terms of getting the goal, having a few chances. We kept the ball against a team that want to build pressure towards the end of the game and we never allowed it.”
