Nottingham Forest paid a special tribute to their former boss Brian Clough on the 12th anniversary of his death, during their clash with Arsenal.
Clough is regarded as one of the game's greatest ever managers, spending 18 years at the City Ground.
During his time with Forest, he won the First Division before back-to-back European Cup successes in 1979 and 1980.
And in the 12th minute of their EFL Cup defeat to Arsenal, the Championship side paid tribute.
An image of Clough was displayed on the big screens at the City Ground as all four stands rose to pay their respect.
