Forest Beat Spurs 2-1, Boost Champions League Hopes

Nottingham Forest moved up to third in the Premier League after a 2-1 away victory over Tottenham Hotspur, with Chris Wood scoring his 19th league goal of the season and Elliot Anderson opening the scoring with a deflected shot. The match marked Nuno Espirito Santo's successful return to his former club. Despite Tottenham's improved second-half performance and a late goal by Richarlison, Forest held on for the win, aided by a crucial goalline clearance from Harry Toffolo. The result boosts Forest's Champions League qualification hopes and increases scrutiny on Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou. With five matches remaining, only three points separate Forest in third from seventh-placed Aston Villa, heightening the competition for Champions League places. Tottenham's 18th league defeat leaves them in 16th place.
