Nottingham Forest captain Ryan Yates explained his goal celebration after their win at Sheffield United.

Yates struck a rare goal for the 3-1 victory.

He said: "Yeah it is class and I am just buzzing we got the win. First half we were lacklustre and I am so glad that we got the win, to be honest.

"I think we were naturally growing in the game anyway. They haven't won a lot of games this season but when they get flowing, they can cause problems.

"Our goal killed the momentum and the game opened up and we had space that we exploited with Callum [Hudson-Odoi] and Anthony [Elanga].

"I just love playing football on this stage. It is an absolute, pleasure. Would I rather be mid-table now? Yes. But it is part and parcel of football and it is up to us to get out of it."

On his swimming celebration, he added: "For a long, long time, they have been singing 'If Yatesy scores, we're in the Trent'. Hopefully, they will be bringing that back as it sort of died off! I am just delighted really."
