Peterborough United's players gave it a good go, but it wasn't enough

Peterborough United’s players gave it a real go against promotion-chasing Nottingham Forest at the Weston Homes Stadium today (April 23), but they couldn’t get the result they needed to avoid the drop back to League One.

There was no lack of heart and fight, but there was very little quality on show, although Forest weren’t a lot better. It finished 1-0 to the visitors with Sam Surridge scoring the only goal just before the break.

Ratings key: 10-Brilliant, 9-Outstanding, 8-Very Good, 7-Good, 6-Okay, 5-Poor, 4-Very Poor
