Wood scores hat trick in 7-0 win for Nottingham Forest over Brighton

LONDON: Nottingham Forest and striker Chris Wood continued their remarkable seasons in a 7-0 rout of Brighton in the Premier League on Saturday.

Wood, the 33-year-old New Zealand international, scored a hat trick to move to 17 goals in the most prolific Premier League campaign of his career. Only Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah (19) and Manchester City’s Erling Haaland (18) have more goals this season.

Morgan Gibbs-White, Neco Williams and Jota Silva also scored after an own-goal by Lewis Dunk set the ball rolling at the City Ground for third-place Forest, which is the surprise of the Premier League this season and moved level on 47 points with second-place Arsenal.

It was Forest’s biggest win since the Premier League was formed in 1992. Agencies
