Three more crucial points
It was far from pretty at times at the City Ground on Sunday afternoon but Tottenham once again managed to secure three points with a 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest. Tipped to leave Nottingham victorious against Steve Cooper's newly-promoted side, it wasn't straightforward at all for the Lilywhites and the hosts caused them major issues throughout.
Forest dominated for long periods and had more possession than Spurs, with the front three of Morgan Gibbs-White, Brennan Johnson and Jesse Lingard extremely lively. Despite having attack after attack, Cooper's men couldn't convert their possession into meaningful chances and Spurs had plenty of opportunities on the counter that they really should have finished off.
