Morgan Gibbs-White has endured the full catalogue of emotions in the last 48 hours, from elation to frustration.
Two days after being picked for the England senior squad, Gibbs-White was highly influential against his old club Wolves at the City Ground but unable to inspire victory.
Wolves have picked up their first point of the season after a resilient display in an often spiky Midlands derby which saw Gary O’Neil booked for dissent.
Forest took the lead through Chris Wood before Jean-Ricner Bellegarde thumped in an equaliser for the visitors.
Gibbs-White had a spectacular 25-yard free kick saved by Wolves debutant Sam Johnstone late in the first half.
