article: Quiz question. Which player is the second-highest scorer in the country this season? Stand up and take a bow anyone who came up with Benik Afobe, who was one of Arsenal’s own before they loaned him to MK Dons and sold him to Wolves. Afobe is young, electric-paced and on 28 goals this season - one behind man-of-the-moment Harry Kane of Tottenham and England. Bakary Sako celebrates after scoring Wolves second goal in a 2-1 win at Nottingham Forest on Good Friday . Sako doubled Wolves' advantage from the penalty spot after he was fouled by Forest's Henri Lansbury . Nottingham Forest (4-1-4-1): Darlow 6.5; Mancienne 6.5, Wilson 6, Lascelles 6.5, Lichaj 7; Gardner 6; Burke 7 (Walker, 76), Lansbury 5.5, Osborn 5 (Paterson, 57, 6), Antonio 5.5 (Blackstock, 83); Akpom 6 . Subs not used: Fox, Vaughan, Hobbs, Evtimov . Goal: Blackstock 90+4 . Booked: Gardner, Lascelles . Wolves (4-4-2): Ikeme 6.5; Iorfa 7, Baath 7, Stearman 7.5, Golbourne 7; Sako 7, Price 6.5, McDonald 6.5, Henry 7 (van la Parra, 66, 5); Afobe 8 (Doherty, 83), Dicko 7.5 (Edwards, 66, 5.5) Subs not used: Doyle, Ebanks-Landell, Hause, Kuszczak. Goals: Afobe 46, Sako 72 . Booked: Price . Ref: Andy D’Urso 6 . Man of the match: Afobe . If he keeps this up, Afobe might even be able to inspire Wolves all the way into the Premier League. What a bargain for £2million, too. Having scored 19 times for MK, the 22-year-old striker has nine goals in 15 appearances for Kenny Jackett’s Wanderers. He has a goalscoring knack, beautifully illustrated 30 seconds into the second half when he collected the ball round the centre circle and started running. Back-tracking Forest defenders held off and held off until, boom, Afobe took a pot-shot and Karl Darlow retrieved the ball which had just avoided his finger tips. Suddenly a tight, strangely underwhelming, match, had a breakthrough and Wolves duly capitalised on it as Bakary Sako doubled the lead from the penalty spot. They are building up a head of steam as the Skybet Championship enters the final weeks with one defeat in nine. Jackett has steered his team from the blind side with remarkable efficiency. A trip across to the East Midlands could have been a very tricky encounter considering Forest’s resurgence under Dougie Freeman. The news that owner Fawaz al Hasawi wants Freedman to stay beyond the summer hardly comes as a surprise. More importantly, from the supporters’ point of view, the manager is making all the right noises about triggering his year’s option too. The Freedman effect is tangible at the City Ground, even if this turned out to be the first real blip. Henri Lansbury has been back to something like his best after a forgettable first chunk of the season so this was a step back for him, too. If anything illustrates BP and AP – before and after Stuart Pearce – then it is Lansbury’s match stats. Before Pearce’s sacking Lansbury had 10 yellow cards and five goals to his name. Since then he has picked up one more booking and scored seven times. Admittedly he went into this Midlands derby on the back of a six-match goal drought and it was his clumsy challenge on Sako which had referee Andy D’Urso pointing to the spot.

Maths and time is against them making the top six but beating Wolves would have had the double impact of keeping them in the chasing pack and denting the top-six hopes of Kenny Jackett’s team. Certainly the 27,000 bumper Good Friday crowd who braved the drizzle arrived in hope and expectation because Freedman’s other achievement since his arrival has been a transformation of home results. Five straight victories at the City Ground after a similar winless run had injected optimism. By the final whistle there were resigned expressions on faces again despite a 90th minute consolation from Dexter Blackstock. Yet it had started promisingly. Michail Antonio might have scored in the opening minutes although it would have been a fluke. The Forest attacker blocked Carl Ikeme’s clearance and the ball ballooned up and could have gone anywhere. Benik Afobe celebrates after putting Wolves 1-0 ahead at the City Ground on Good Friday .

The home side also had their ‘A’ man and, like Afobe there is an Arsenal connection. Chuba Akpom was on the wanted list of many clubs in January but Forest managed to persuade the Gunners to loan him out to them. He was named from the start but struggled to impose himself. His best moment was a penalty claim when he went down under a challenge from Chris Burke but D’Urso was having none of it. Highlights for Forest included a long-range effort by Michael Mancienne which was pushed wide by Ikeme while Lansbury shot over the bar from the edge of the area. Wolves thought they had scored in the first half when Kevin Wilson’s slip let in Afobe. Darlow saved the shot and Eric Lichaj blocked the follow-up by Nouha Dicko. Next up for the Wanderers is Leeds at home on Easter Monday. Neil Redfearn was an interested spectator on Good Friday and he needs no telling it will be a toughie.
