Our Emirates FA Cup title defence came to a disappointing early end, as we were beaten 4-2 by Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.
The hosts took the lead through a header from Eric Lichaj, while Per Mertesacker equalised soon after from close range. Lichaj soon doubled up and put Forest back in the lead shortly before the break.
Following the interval, Forest stretched their lead through Ben Brereton from the spot. We hit back with a strike from Danny Welbeck, only for the hosts to add a fourth once again from the spot when Debuchy was this time penalised for a trip on Armand Traore, which was put away by Keiran Dowell.
