What changed

Crystal Palace beat Nottingham Forest 3-1 in the Premier League, overturning Forest’s early lead.

For Oliver Glasner, it was a frustrating return to Crystal Palace. He now leaves Selhurst Park with Forest having surrendered the advantage and the match.

Why it matters

The scoreline tells a neat story of a game that changed direction. Forest started in front but could not hold it; Palace turned that opening into a three-goal win.

The personal angle sharpens the result. Glasner’s return was already more than an ordinary away match, and the defeat makes it a particularly awkward one. Palace get the points and the memory of a comeback, while Forest are left with the harder question: how did an early lead become a 3-1 loss?
