Europa League: Forest, Villa eran compelling wins, Roma secure tight victory

On Sunday night in Nottinghamshire, Nottingham Forest secured their third consecutive win, a 3‑0 victory over Malmö FF that earned them three Europa League points.

Ryan Yates, Arnaud Kalimuendo and Nikola Milenkovic each found the net as Forest kept up their home‑court form. Yates curled a beautiful shot from inside the box after 27 minutes and nearly doubled the lead when Malmö’s Melker Ellborg tipped a header to the warning area, before Kalimuendo capitalised on the rebound in the 44th minute. Milenkovic added a third from a corner 14 minutes after the break, and Callum Hudson‑Odoi nearly hit the crossbar with a follow‑up. The win pushed the Reds up to eighth place, extended their unbeaten run to five matches across all competitions, and marked three victories in three games over the previous month.

Across the continent, Donyell Malen’s brace helped Aston Villa secure their fourth win in five league outings, defeating Young Boys 2‑1. The Dutch striker shrugged off a sharp save by Marvin Keller in the 35th minute with a low header, and just before half‑time he blasted a top‑corner goal after a pass from Morgan Rogers. Young Boys nearly clawed back the contest when substitute Joel Monteiro produced a half‑volley, but the comeback fizzled out.

In Italy, Neil El Aynaoui opened his goals record for Roma as the club claimed a deserved 2‑1 win over Midtjylland at home.

Down in Scotland, Celtic rallied from a deficit to beat Feyenoord—a rematch of the 1970 UEFA European Cup final—in Rotterdam, with Hyunjun Yang, Reo Hatate and Benjamin Nygren turning out for the Hoops, who now sit on seven points.
