There did not appear to be a handshake between Oliver Glasner and Enzo Maresca at full-time.

The Manchester City boss headed straight down the tunnel.

Oliver Glasner looks absolutely elated. He goes round all of his players congratulating them before applaudig the crowd.

It was fighting talk from him last week and his players have answered the rallying cry.

Before the game all the talk was about individual errors. This hasn't been about that, apart from the first goal, the line is disjointed.

The fullbacks are very wide. If the ball turns over quick and you pass it with your first pass you can be right through them.

They've been exposed today, Glasner's team have played through them every time.

That is that.

What a performance from Nottingham Forest. Out of the relegation zone and Liam Delap firing in two goals.

For Manchester City and Enzo Maresca, it's more questions after yet more individual errors prove costly.

Time is almost up.

Phil Foden drives forward and is caught by Luca Netz, who goes into the book.

Forest's three central defenders have been really good this afternoon.

Jair Cunha just before that was really strong, we've seen Erling Haaland out muscle people so many times and the defenders have done well today.

They've been compact and have worked well together.

City have been getting the ball in some decent areas but it does not feel like anything is going to come for them at this point.

A goal might make the scoreline a bit nicer for them but a comeback is unlikely.

It's one where City just look dejected, they've run out of ideas. The third goal has absolutely deflated the whole team.

They've brought on Phil Foden to try and get a bit going but it hasn't really worked.

It's been positive for Forest tonight and the manager will be delighted.

Liam Delap makes way for Igor Jesus.

Finally he has showed why Forest spent the big bucks on him this summer.

This is the first time Man City have conceded three goals against a team starting the day in the Premier League relegation zone since September 2019 (2-3 v Norwich) and first time after at least 10 games since December 2009 (3-3 v Bolton).

Manchester City have been on top for large periods of this game but that second Liam Delap goal has knocked them for six.

Just how big of a turning point could this be for Nottingham Forest? Oliver Glasner asked for patience, is his vision finally coming to fruition?

This result will see them clear of the Premier League relegation zone by two points.

Enzo Maresca turns to his bench.

Phil Foden is on for Enzo Fernandez.

For the hosts, Ryan Yates makes way for Ibrahim Sangare.

A tough old season for Liam Delap but two goals tonight against second-in-the-league Manchester City.

A change in fortune, perhaps?

Around 14 minutes on the clock.

Is there another twist in this? Manchester City win a corner but it comes to nothing.

I haven't seen anything like this in a long time. Liam Delap takes one touch, hasn't thought about it and it curls away from the goalkeeper.

He hits it so clean, the whole place just erupts and the pressure is taken off them.

The club has been through a tough period, they've scored three against a really good Man City team. That's emotion.

Oliver Glasner ran the length of the pitch from his technical area to go and celebrate with Liam Delap, Mourinho-esque.

Brilliant celebrations.
