NOTTINGHAM FOREST’S clash with Wolves erupted into a brawl following the full-time whistle.
The match ended 1-1 after 90 minutes with Forest progressing to the semi-final after winning the penalty shoot-out 4-3.
Cue bedlam from the Forest players led by goalkeeper Dean Henderson and Morgan Gibbs-White.
The shot-stopper celebrated with the Forest faithful as his midfield team-mate decided to wind up his former team.
Gibbs-White joined Forest from Wolves last summer and celebrated the win by sliding in front of the travelling faithful and putting his fingers in his ears.
Manchester United loanee Henderson then bounced up and down with a group of team-mates before a melee broke out between the two sets of players.
