Nottingham Forest's fight for survival in the league received a significant lift thanks to Callum Hudson-Odoi, the English-born Ghanaian forward. His two goals were pivotal in their win against Sheffield United.

The match saw an early lead for Sheffield when Ben Brereton Diaz scored from the penalty spot. However, Hudson-Odoi quickly equalized, bringing the score to 1-1 before halftime.

In the second half, English midfielder Ryan Yates put Nottingham Forest ahead, and Hudson-Odoi's second goal solidified their lead, securing the victory.

This crucial win has allowed Nottingham Forest to widen the gap to three points from the relegation zone, with just two matches left in the season.

Hudson-Odoi's contributions have been notable since his move to the club last summer, with these two goals marking his fourth and fifth for the campaign. The team's prospects look brighter as they edge closer to securing their place in the league.
