Igor Jesus entered in the 86th minute and still had time to score a late winner for Nottingham Forest in its 2-1 win at Utrecht in the Europa League on Thursday.
The forward claimed his fourth goal of the campaign two minutes from time after Utrecht goalkeeper Vasilis Barkas was unable to hold Dan Ndoye's header.
Arnaud Kalimuendo gave Forest the lead early in the second half before Mike van der Hoorn equalized with a header.
Forest remains unbeaten in the second-tier competition with three wins and a draw since Sean Dyche took over as manager from Ange Postecoglou.

“The most important thing is how we are building the team, how we are achieving in our process during each competition our stronger mentality in everything,” manager Unai Emery said ahead of the match at St. Jakob-Park in Basel. Emery has won the Europa League trophy four times during stints in charge of Sevilla and Villarreal.
