Middlesbrough are 1-0 to the good against Nottingham Forest in tonight's match.
Forest did the early running and could have taken the lead but Henri Lansbury struck his shot over the bar after Radoslaw Majewski's effort was blocked.
Boro's first chance came when Albert Adomah turned and drilled the ball just wide of the post.
However, the away side were soon ahead as Kei Kamara slotted the ball into the net after Adomah had set him up.
Lansbury again missed the target but Forest were awarded a penalty 10 minutes before half time when Majewski was fouled by Rhys Williams. Andy Reid stepped up but his spot kick was saved by Jason Steele.
