Second win in a row for the Tottenham, who were beaten 2-0 by Forest in Nottingham and caught Manchester City in 4th place in the Premier League standings – while leaving the losers in 16th place and without a win in six matches.
The home side were more threatening in the first half but saw his header close Richarlison in the delays to give the lead to the Londoners.
THE Elanga leveled the match in the 58th minute but his goal was disallowed by VAR for offside, with Tottenham getting a second goal in the 65th minute when Kulusevsky took advantage of Turner’s mistake and nailed the ball into the net from a sideline position.
His dismissal Bisuma for dangerous marking in the 71st minute allowed Forest to get their lines up, but apart from a great Tofolo chance in the 84th minute, they didn’t do much.
They thus forced themselves into another defeat, with Steve Cooper remaining in a very difficult position…
