    Chris Wood's Premier League goal-scoring form has continued


    The All Whites striker has nabbed his fifth goal of the season, helping Nottingham Forest to a 1-nil win over Crystal Palace.

    He's explained what's been described as a "baby" celebration, sliding the ball under his shirt after the strike from 22 metres out.



    The victory is Forest's third of the season, lifting them to eighth on the ladder.
