The latest international round-up for Nottingham Forest's stars across the globe.
Several Nottingham Forest stars were in action for their nations on Thursday during the second week of the international break.
It was a broadly successful day for Forest's international contingent, with a goal, a comeback and a semi-final triumph on the agenda.
Here is a look at how every Forest start who played on Thursday got on.
Neco Williams (Wales) - Winners vs Norway
Wales delivered a shock 2-1 win at home to 10-man Norway in the UEFA Nations League.
Torbjørn Heggem brought down first-half scorer Dan James on the edge of the box moments after the second half began, and was promptly given his marching orders.
Neco Williams took the resulting free kick, and had the beating of Ørjan Nyland to fire Wales 2-1 ahead, the scoreline the game finished at.
Despite the win, Wales remain bottom of League A, Group 4, at the halfway point of the group stage.
Chris Wood (New Zealand) - Into the Kirin Cup final
It was agreed that Chris Wood would only join the New Zealand squad for their final two games of the international break.
In the first of those two games, New Zealand beat Panama on penalties to secure their place in the final of the Kirin Cup.
Wood started the game, but was not on the scoresheet as the All Whites were held to a 1-1 draw in regular time.
The veteran striker was taken off in the 71st minute, meaning he was not involved in the penalty shootout.
Forest loanee Tyler Bindon was, however, and the young defender scored New Zealand’s first in their triumphant shootout.
Xaver Schlager (Austria) - Comeback point

Shockingly, Austria trailed 2-0 away to the Republic of Ireland at halftime, and looked to be slipping to a surprise defeat.
But a quartet of changes inspired a comeback, as substitutes Alexander Prass and Michael Gregoritsch were both on the scoresheet as Austria came back to draw 2-2.
Schlager, despite not getting on the scoresheet, was one of the standout performers in Ralf Rangnick’s side, putting in a commanding performance in midfield.
Upcoming games
Plenty of Forest stars will be in action over the coming days as the international break nears its final week.
But, before the long-awaited return of club football, more fixtures await Forest's international Reds.
Among those set to feature in the coming days are Morgan Gibbs-White, who could earn his first start as England visit Croatia, while Daniel Muñoz's Colombia host Paraguay in the early hours of Saturday morning, among many other games.
Roundtable will be bringing you a full breakdown of which Forest players are set to be in action, and when, on Friday evening.
