Result: Nottingham Forest remain unbeaten under Chris Hughton with Derby draw

Lyle Taylor rescued a point for Nottingham Forest with his first goal for the club in a 1-1 draw with Derby at the City Ground.

Taylor poked home from close range in the 64th minute to cancel out Martyn Waghorn 's brilliant first-half opener.

The Rams had enjoyed the better of the first-half chances and deservedly went ahead when Waghorn scored with a 25-yard free-kick on the half-hour mark.

But Graeme Shinnie missed a brilliant chance to make it 2-0 seven minutes later when Brice Samba denied him during a one-on-one.

And Taylor made him pay for the miss when he equalised following a goalmouth scramble from a 64th-minute corner.

Derby thought they had won it late on when Kamil Jozwiak had a goal ruled out for offside.
