Ipswich seized their chance and grabbed the lead in the early stages of the second half, as George Hirst found the back of the net with a header from a corner at the far post.

Ryan Yates took advantage of some woeful defending to nod in an equaliser 22 minutes from time.

An extra 30 minutes of extra-time came and went without a winner despite Nuno sending on top scorer Chris Wood and England international Morgan Gibbs-White.

But Sels, another of Forest's star performers this season, proved the hero after the first nine penalties of the shootout found the net.

"In penalties one of the goalkeepers is going to be the hero," said Sels.
