Luton boss Rob Edwards hailed \u201cmagic\u201d super-sub Elijah Adebayo after the striker\u2019s stoppage-time equaliser clinched a 2-2 draw at Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n
Forest led 2-0 in the 83rd minute through Chris Wood\u2019s second-half double, but Chiedozie Ogbene gave the Hatters a late lifeline and Adebayo\u2019s superb effort snatched them a point.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old took Tom Lockyer\u2019s long ball into the box on his chest and buried a low shot in the second minute of added time as Luton, promoted via the play-offs in May, registered just their fifth point from nine matches.<\/p>\n
Edwards said: \u201cIt was a great goal. He\u2019s got those moments. He came on against Burnley and got his goal and he\u2019s done it again today.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s got these little moments of magic in him. The assist he got at Sheffield United, the assist at Wembley. He\u2019s had big moments for us Eli since we\u2019ve been here.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was frustrated not to start the game as I would expect, but that\u2019s what you\u2019ve got to do when you come on. That\u2019s what I want. He gives me a difficult decision to make next week.\u201d<\/p>\n
Forest were worthy of their 2-0 lead after Wood struck in the 48th and 76th minute, but Luton refused to surrender.<\/p>\n
Ogbene lashed home in the 83rd minute after Forest had failed to clear a free-kick and Adebayo, a second-half replacement for Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu, had the final word.<\/p>\n
Edwards added: \u201cI\u2019m really proud of the players. The spirit, the fight and determination.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe finish the game strongly. We will never give up, we will always keep fighting.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re where we expected to be. Nobody expects us to be top four. We\u2019re where we expected to be, in the fight we expected to be in. We\u2019re comfortable with it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper could not hide his frustration after his side\u2019s winless run was extended to five matches.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s disappointment in the end,\u201d Cooper said. \u201cWe dominated the game and we\u2019re disappointed we weren\u2019t leading by one or two goals at half-time.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe obviously got the early goal in the second half and then made it 2-0 and it all changes on a set-piece, which we defended terribly really.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf all Luton\u2019s threats off set-plays, it was the worst delivery of the day and ends up in the back of our net and that\u2019s where the momentum changes.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a real pity because of the way we had played for however long it was before their first goal went in because it was a comfortable game for us.\u201d<\/p>\n
