Stan Colymore was the first Forest player to score in six straight Premier League games and that was in 1995.

Today, Awoniyi stunned the home fans at Old Trafford when he raced from his own half of the pitch before he shot past the goalkeeper after just two minutes of action for the opening goal of the match.

He has now netted three goals in the new season.

He was Forest top scorer last season with 10 goals and manager Steve Cooper has backed him to score a lot more goals this term.
