SPORTING DIGEST: FOOTBALL

Nottingham Forest, the Premiership's bottom club, will field Rangers' Norwegian international left-back, Stale Stensaas, as a trialist in tonight's reserve fixture against Leeds with a view to a permanent deal. Marco Negri, who was close to leaving Rangers for West Ham on loan last week, has made a similar switch to the Serie A club Vicenza.

Everton's women's side are through to their second League Cup final after beating their Merseyside rivals Tranmere 2-1 in the semi-final yesterday. The Everton captain and England international Maureen Marley headed her side into the lead in the 15th minute and Cheryl Jones made it 2-0 four minutes later. Sandra Gardner's superbly floated 25-yard free-kick gave Rovers hope just before the hour mark, but Everton dug in for victory.
