Nuno Espirito Santo put Evangelos Marinakis' on-pitch "frustration" down to "emotions" caused by an injury mix-up late on as Nottingham Forest dropped points at home to Leicester.

The Forest owner was pictured deep in conversation with his head coach following the 2-2 draw which leaves Champions League qualification out of their hands and relying on results elsewhere to reach Europe's top-tier competition for the first time in 45 years.
