Nottingham Forest secure FA Cup quarter-final tie against Liverpool

Nottingham Forest 2 Huddersfield Town 1

Nottingham Forest will host Liverpool in the FA Cup quarter-finals after coming from behind to beat Championship rivals Huddersfield 2-1 at the City Ground.

Having had a Sam Surridge effort controversially ruled out for offside, Forest fell behind moments later when Tom Lees netted with a 13th-minute header.

Surridge then struck an equaliser in the 29th minute, before Ryan Yates completed the turnaround for Steve Cooper's men by nodding home eight minutes later.
