Tottenham Hotspur vs Nottingham Forest
The full-time whistle sounds in North London after a nervy second 45 minutes for Nottingham Forest, who just about hold on to secure a 2-1 victory at Tottenham Hotspur! Already 2-0 up from the first half, Forest elected to sit back in the second and registered just 0.64 xG despite their two early goals, with Gibbs-White lashing their best chance wide of the target. At the other end, Spurs racked up 2.14 xG as chances for Kulusevski, Danso, and several for Richarlison before the Brazilian finally found the net with a pinpoint header. That 87th minute goal, however, proved to be too little, too late for Ange Postecoglou's side, who suffer a staggering 18th Premier League defeat of the season to remain down in 16th place. Forest are back to winning ways up at the summit though and climb from sixth to third with their first win in three attempts, puttng Nuno Espirito Santo's side back in the driving seat for a Champions League spot with just five games left to play!

Forest win a free-kick out on the right-hand side which they do their best to keep in the corner, but Sosa is scythed down recklessly by Tel to restart the same process again.

Williams does brilliantly to beat Tel to the loose ball after Tottenham's free-kick is cleared, but his out-ball to Awoniyi isn't held up by the substitute and Spurs will come back for one last chance.

We're into the first of FIVE added minutes in North London with Spurs searching for an equaliser, and will that be enough time for Postecoglou's side to salvage something?

BLOCKED!! Tel cuts inside from the left to have a go from range, and after his effort is blocked in the box by Milenkovic, Davies follows in with a first-time strike which he fires well over the top!
