Super Eagles stars missing in Luton vs Forest
Chris Wood opened the scoring for the visitors when he netted his ninth of the season to give the Reds the lead.
However, Nuno Santo's side couldn't capitalise on their dominance and were made to pay by Berry's last-gasp intervention for the relegation-threatened Hatters.

The result leaves Forest still not quite safe in 17th place on 25 points, while Luton remain deep in the mire just three points behind them.
For the Nigerian contingent for both teams, Awoniyi and Aina were not named for Forest while Luton were also without the injured Gabriel Osho.

While disappointed by the late sucker punch, the point does at least nudge Forest a step closer to mathematical safety with nine games to go.
With Luton desperately scrapping to survive, this could prove a vital point gained for both sides in their respective battles come the season's end.
