Forest won 2-1 as Arnaud Kalimuendo's opener was canceled out by Mike van der Hoorn before Igor Jesus struck an 88th minute winner.
Hudson-Odoi said afterwards: “In football, you can dominate for the first five-to-ten minutes of the game and everything can switch. So it's just about maintaining the way we're playing, working hard as a team and keeping compact at times.
"You've just got to keep going to the end and keep pushing. And we got a result, which is the most important thing.
“You can see the mentality of the team we have. Everybody is ready to push to the final whistle and give their all in every game. In training we work hard; we work our socks off. And it proves it when we win games like that.
“Everybody knows everybody and knows how each other plays. The most important thing in football is connections and building links all around the pitch and getting the best out of each other. Everybody knows their game and what the others can bring to the team.”
