Forest put 5 past Sunderland to close in on safety

Nottingham Forest thrashed Sunderland 5-0 in the Premier League on 24 April 2026, with goals from an own goal by Trai Hume (17'), Chris Wood (31'), Morgan Gibbs-White (34'), Igor Jesus (37'), and Elliot Anderson (90'+5'). The result extended Forest's unbeaten run to eight games and opened an eight-point gap between them and 18th-placed Tottenham, who have just five games remaining. Gibbs-White was the standout performer, having also scored a hat-trick in the previous weekend's 4-1 win over Burnley.
