USMNT star Gio Reyna benched yet again as Nottingham Forest pick up three vital points in relegation race with win over Auston Trusty's Sheffield United

Forest went behind in the 17th minute due to a clumsy challenge from Gonzalo Montiel, who hacked down Ben Brereton Diaz inside the box. The Chilean international stepped up and scored the ensuing penalty, giving the hosts an early lead.It didn't take long for Forest to strike back, though, as Callum Hudson-Odoi scored a stunner just 10 minutes later to level the score. It remained that way until halftime, but Forest would emerge for the second half and soon get a crucial goal.In the 51st minute, Ryan Yates scored the goal that may just save Forest's season, giving his side a 2-1 lead. Forest then made it 3-1 on a second goal from Hudson-Odoi in the 65th minute, sealing three crucial points in the relegation race.

WHAT HAPPENED?

With the win, Forest pick up three crucial points heading into the final two weeks of the Premier League season. They're now in 17th place, three points ahead of Luton Town. In addition to the three-point lead, Forest are also 10 goals better in terms of goal difference, giving them a massive advantage heading into the final weeks.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

There was an American on the field from the start, but it wasn't Reyna. On the other side of the field, Auston Trusty retained his starting spot for Sheffield United, making his 30th appearance for the club this season.Trusty had some difficult moments, but those were largely team-wide. United, as a unit, struggled defensively, with Trusty actually looking the most helpful of their defensive unit for much of the game.Reyna, meanwhile, didn't come off the bench. The American has played just 230 minutes this season, with 124 of those minutes coming in games against Wolves and Everton in April. The other 106 of those minutes are spread across seven other appearances as Reyna's loan spell has been nothing short of a disaster.

USMNT IMPACT

Auston Trusty (6/10):Had some nervy moments, although basically everyone does on this Sheffield United team. Could have done better on a few sequences but also did more good work defensively than his partners.Gio Reyna (N/A): Benched yet again. This season may have a happy ending for Forest, but it doesn't look like it will for Reyna.

GOAL'S RATINGS

Forest have just two games left in their Premier League season as they look to confirm their place in the top flight. Up next is a home match against Chelsea before Forest finish the season with what could be a relegation-deciding clash with Burnley on May 19.
