Chris Wood scored a hat-trick as Forest returned back to winning ways in front of their own supporters, registering their biggest-ever Premier League victory against the sorry Seagulls.

The win lifts Forest level on points with second-placed Arsenal – who play Manchester City on Sunday – while Brighton are in 10th.

Morgan Gibbs-White, Neco Williams, and Jota Silva all registered their names on the scoresheet, while Lewis Dunk inadvertently turned a cross into his own net.
