The Nigerian Forward continued his goalscoring streak today against Manchester United as Nottingham Forest let their 2-0 lead over the Red Devils slip away at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.

Awoniyi’s goal came in the 2nd minute of the game as he made both Man United defender and goalkeeper lie in green pastures.

It was an impressive first half from the visiting Steve Cooper side, even as United rallied to pull one back before the interval.

It took just 3 minutes and 47 seconds for Nottingham Forest to take a 2-0 lead against Manchester United, courtesy of Awoniyi’s opener and Willy Boly header.

Taiwo Awoniyi has scored in 7 consecutive Premier League games for Nottingham Forest.

He deserves the Hype!! How many more this season?

This is the earliest the Red Devils have ever trailed by two goals in a Premier League game. Shock.

Although the two quick goals left United fans in deep shock, they managed to pull one back through Christian Eriksen.

Clearly shaken by a terrible first period, the home team quickly started to control the field of play in the second.

And to reward them for their efforts after the break, Casemiro tied the game through a deftly taken free kick.

As Nottingham were reduced to ten men after their captain Worrall was given the boot, Bruno Fernandes scored from penalty spot to complete the comeback.

The game ended Man United 3-2 Nottingham Forest after the final whistle.

While in search of their first away victory in the top division since January, Nottingham Forest utterly blew the opportunity.

However, the record-breaking Nigerian International became the first-ever Forest player to score in seven consecutive Premier League games.

He joins Mohamed Salah and Emmanuel Adebayor as the only other players from Africa to score in seven straight Premier League games.
