Forest manager Dougie Freedman felt the difference between the two sides was that when chances came along Wolves took theirs, with former Arsenal striker Benik Afobe the man who break the deadlock in a tight clash.
The Scot felt that there was not a lot between the sides but when Wolves scored within a minute of the restart his half time team talk 'went out of the window.'
Opposite number Kenny Jackett knows his side are now right in the mix for a play-off place and is looking forward to a big game against Leeds on Easter Monday.
For the Reds, unfortunately, the season has only pride left to play for.
