From the source
Nottingham Forest's woes in front of goal continued as they were held to a 1-1 draw at Ipswich despite dominating the game. Forest were guilty of squandering a hatful of chances as they created 2.31 worth of expected goals and won the shot count 17-7 but only had Neco Williams' first-half goal to show for their big volume.
That lead was cancelled out just before the break by Julio Enciso after a mistake from Nikola Milenkovic.
Forest were also aggrieved that Issa Diop survived a red card after the Ipswich defender was shown just a yellow card after referee Thomas Bramall was sent to the pitchside monitor by VAR to check the defender's tackle on James McAtee for denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity.
