Nottingham Forest moved up to second in League One after an error from Leyton Orient keeper Stuart Nelson handed them victory at Brisbane Road. He let a Junior Agogo shot slip through his grasp just after the hour mark as Forest stole all three points.
Forest were the better team, Agogo forcing Nelson to save and then Chris Cohen wasting another good opportunity.
Orient's best chance was when Forest defender Wes Morgan's attempted clearance rebounded off a post.
