BRIGHTON, England (Reuters) – Brighton & Hove Albion and Nottingham Forest maintained their unbeaten starts to the Premier League season with a topsy-turvy 2-2 draw as the visitors finished with 10 men on Sunday.
Forest led through Chris Wood’s 13th-minute penalty but Brighton finally sprang to life just before the interval to turn the match on its head with two goals in three minutes.
Jack Hinshelwood powered in a headed equaliser after 42 minutes before Danny Welbeck curled a free kick inside the post.
Forest were rewarded for their efforts though as Ramon Sosa slotted home from close range in the 70th.
Tempers flared when Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White was shown a red card for a robust tackle which earned him a second booking and both managers were also sent from the technical area.
The two clubs have nine points from their opening five games with Brighton in seventh spot and Forest eighth.
