(Nottingham Forest-Tottenham 0-2) Tottenham returned to the winning track after goals from Richarlison (26) and Dejan Kulusevski (23) against the bottom team, Nottingham Forest.
After a brilliant start to the season in the English Premier League, Tottenham had lost four of their last five matches before beating Newcastle in the last round. On Friday night, the Whites recorded another victory, putting the team level on points with Manchester City and four points behind league leaders Liverpool.
Sky Sports expert Gary Neville expressed his admiration for what Australian Ange Postecoglou (58 years old) has achieved as coach of Tottenham.
– What he did in such a short time at the club is incredible. He put together something great to look at. It’s very complicated from a football point of view. Neville says: It may take two or three seasons for a team to progress like clockwork, but Ange Postecoglou is an unbelievable player.
After a relatively equal first half, Richarlison scored with a wonderful header seconds before the end of the first half. Kulusevski provided the goal with a beautiful cross.
In the second half, the Swede took advantage of poor play by Matt Turner (29) and shot the ball over the head of Forest’s last chance in the 64th minute.
Shortly after, Yves Bissouma (27 years old) received a straight red card after hitting Ryan Yates (26 years old). Forest produced several great chances with another man on the field, but Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario (27) saved the most dangerous chance by showing his leg on the goal line.
With this result, Tottenham remains at the top of the English Premier League table, while Forest remains at the bottom. Over the weekend, it is also possible that Everton could get the better of Steve Cooper’s men, thus also losing out on 16th place in the series.
