Also, the champions played a scrappy game during the match. They struggled to find their rhythm for much of the time.
Next, the team did not record a shot on target until late. Madueke finally scored with only ten minutes left.
However, the win helps Arsenal close the gap on Manchester City. They now sit only three points behind the league leaders.
After that, Arsenal continued their recent winning streak. They have now won three league games in a row.
Meanwhile, the club still shows the ability to grind out results. This victory marks their sixth win in seven matches.
As a result, manager Mikel Arteta looked frustrated on the sidelines. He made several substitutions to try to improve the team.
Later, he brought on players like Mikel Merino and Viktor Gyokeres. These changes helped spark the team into life.
Then, Arsenal finally made the big breakthrough in the 80th minute. Madueke cut inside and fired a shot past the goalkeeper.
Still, Nottingham Forest fought hard until the final whistle. Defender Murillo nearly scored a late goal for the home side.
