Cardiff edges Forest to boost promotion push
Cardiff City is closing in on automatic promotion from the EFL Championship after a late 2-1 home win over Nottingham Forest lifted it back into second.
Aron Gunnarsson turned home the winner in the 74th minute to secure a vital triumph that moves Neil Warnock's men a point ahead of Fulham, which has played an additional match.
Forest midfielder Liam Bridcutt had earlier netted at close range to cancel out Sean Morrison's first-half header, but the Bluebirds responded to secure a second successive victory ahead of Wednesday's trip to seventh-placed Derby County.
Should it prevail in that match, Cardiff would then only need a solitary win from their remaining two fixtures against Hull City and Reading to end a four-season absence from the Premier League.
