THE Nuno Santo he worked on it as best he knew and could, with the result that the fruits of this work are starting to be seen and enjoyed by everyone at the City Ground! In Boxing Day of 2024, the Nottingham Forest managed to find in 3rd place of the standings, with a win 1-0 on her Tottenham of Angelos Postecoglou, to ensure the fourth consecutive “three points” in the championship and to continue the awesome climb of the club of Vangelis Marinakis. Notably, Tottenham suffered defeat on Boxing Day for the first time since 2003.
The only goal of the match was scored by Anthony Elanga who found the net for a third consecutive Premier League match for the first time in his career! And in fact, he has now been involved in 19 goals in the top League since the start of 2023-2024.
OR Chelsea at Stamford Bridge he would ideally like on this festive day and especially after the 0-0 draw with Everton to bring joy to his world. But the Fulham he pulled it off impressively and with reversal to 90’+5′ for the final 2-1. The “blues” took the lead with his awesome goal Palmer in the 16th minute, when the English star managed to put his team ahead with a tunnel shot. Fulham made an incredible counter-attack in the second half, made more finals than the hosts and with the goals of Harry Wilson (82′) and Muniz (90’+5′) got exactly what they deserved with the final 2-1.
OR Newcastle did… Christmas party opposite to Aston Villaprevailing 3-0. Of course, the ‘villans’ – who had found themselves chasing the score from Gordon’s superb right-footed finish in the 2nd minute – were left complaining about the dismissal of Duran in the 30th minute. He stepped on the fallen Sarr on the back, claimed he had nowhere else to step at the time after their ‘duel’ and is being talked about as one of the worst refereeing decisions of the season. THE Isaac he could not leave Boxing Day unexploited, he scored in the 59th minute from an assist by Murphy and reached 10 goals in his last as many games. The icing on the cake came from his impressive shot Zoelinton in stoppage time (3-0).
A goal by him Bowen in the 59th minute he broke the Gordian bond for her West Ham in St. Mary’s, with the “hammers” prevailing 1-0 and maintain a four-match unbeaten run in a timing that looks like they are trying to get the upper hand. Jurich’s debut was negative on the bench of the “saints” with this result. Bournemouth and Crystal Palace, with his “cherries” remained at 0-0 at the Vitality Stadium Iraola they definitely deserve something more, but they don’t manage to get it, as a result they fall to 6th place in the standings.
