Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Hotspur LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction

Conte on UCL draw

Tottenham continued their impressive start to the Premier League season as Harry Kane scored two and missed a penalty in a 2-0 win at Nottingham Forest.

Kane gave Spurs a dream start just after four minutes as he finished a swift counter-attack to claim his 200th league goal and score in the third match in a row.

But it was Forest who enjoyed the majority of the ball in an impressive first-half performance from Steve Cooper’s side - even if they failed to seriously test Hugo Lloris.

Forest required Dean Henderson to make a big stop after the break and save Kane’s second-half penalty, awarded following a Steve Cook handball on the line.

Spurs had been wasteful on the break late on, until substitute Richarlison picked out Kane at the back post for a simple header, leaving Antonio Conte’s side with 10 points from their opening 12.
