That is all we have time for on Tribe as Nottingham Forest jump into the top three of the Premier League ahead of Arsenal with a win! I have been Elliot Thompson, and thank you for joining me. Stay with us on Tribe for more live coverage of the Premier League as Wolves take on Manchester United in just over 20 minutes.
Tottenham's season is falling apart and has been for several weeks now. They are normally devasting going forward, but today, they were non-existent. The only threat came from Johnson, who forced Sels into two big saves in the first half. Solanke wasn't involved, Son was invisible, and Kulusevski didn't have the ball anywhere near enough. Their goal came from Sarr and Bentancur not protecting the backline as well. Just everything looks all over the place right now. Ange Postecoglou also had another defensive injury as Dragusin had to come off. The pressure on Postecoglou's shoulders will be huge, as they have just lost their ninth game of the season. Next up for them is a home game against Wolves, who are in a relegation fight. It is set to be a massive January transfer window for Spurs as Postecoglou wants more reinforcements. He needs to make sure he will be in charge for the window with a win next time around, but there seem to be little signs of optimism at the moment.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST CONTINUE THEIR REMARKABLE FORM WITH ANOTHER WIN! The home fans all around the ground are singing their hearts out as they celebrate yet another win against one of the big boys in the Premier League. They are up to third place in the league, which is just incredible. Nuno Espirito Santo deserves so much credit as they are on course for potential Champions League football. Their goal came from Elanga after a wonderful burst from Gibbs-White in midfield. He played a through ball, allowing Elanga to poke a shot past the onrushing Forster. They held on going into the break ahead. In the second half, Forest mainly defended as Spurs just struggled to unlock their backline. Murillo and Milenkovic were yet again outstanding, as was Morato when he came on to see out the victory. Nuno Espirito Santo knows his side's strengths, and he is playing to them, hence why they are flying high in the Premier League. Next up for them is Everton. It is worth mentioning, as it stands, they are only five points off the top spot!
90+4'
TOTTENHAM ARE DOWN TO TEN MEN! The ball breaks to Jota Silva deep on the right wing. He touches it past Spence as he tries to counter. Spence sticks a leg out to bring him down cynically. So, he is shown a second yellow card to add to the misery for Ange Postecoglou.

D. Spence
90+3'
Spence dribbles inside the box on the left wing. He falls over due to a challenge from Aina, but the referee isn't interested. Aina clears but only to Gray, who passes forward quickly to Maddison. He is tripped up by Jota Silva, winning a free-kick. His delivery from the left is with power, so Forest is clear easily.
+5
90'
Porro cuts inside on the right wing, passing the ball to Kulusevski. He switches it over to Spence on the left. Spence passes it forward to Werner in some space. Wener clips in a cross, but Milenkovic once again clears. It comes out to Bissouma. He passes it to Johnson, but his low cross only finds Murillo. Forest have been so solid here!
87'
Ange Postecoglou has another defensive injury as Draguson cannot continue. He has been replaced by Bissouma, who is now filling in at centre back.
