That's that. #NFFC are beaten 3-1 at Tottenham. Forest might have gone in at HT with a 2-1 lead, following a bright 45 mins. But Spurs stepped up a gear and were ruthless where Forest had not been. Maddison lucky to escape punishment for jabbing Yates in the belly.

Good luck stopping that. Micky van de Ven whacks it home for Tottenham Hotspur against Nottingham Forest. #TOTNOT | #THFC 🎥 @SkySportsPL https://t.co/2e038NR6JD
GOAL. Tottenham take the lead again. van de Ven with a rocket into the top corner, from just inside the box #NFFC Wood had just had another header, which he could not quite muster enough power on to trouble the keeper. There are more goals in this.
WHAT A HIT MICKY VDV!!!!! 🤩 https://t.co/kXroJV21DH
Big save from Sels to keep out a driven - and deflected - effort from half time sub Hojbjerg. Spurs also introduced Bentancur at the break. Wood just headed wide from a great position - and might have been happy to see the offside flag go up #NFFC
Fans say 'that's the Chris Wood we knew and loved at Newcastle' after 'miss of the season' against Spurs #TOTNFO https://t.co/E6Njrvd86X https://t.co/c5CGBCWPjf
HT and it is 1-1. Forest have played well, amid a game in which both sides have carved out chances. But #NFFC have given as good as they have got. Wood finished well to make it 1-1, following an unlucky Murillo own goal. The big striker also hit the post with a great chance.
Half-time: @SpursOfficial 1-1 @NFFC ⏱️ Chris Wood made up for Murillo's 15th-minute own goal, drawing the away side level with his 12th strike of the season! 🌳 #TOTNFO https://t.co/E9gMM10i1L
All square at the break. Chris Wood levelled for the Reds but it could have been even better for Forest had he not hit the post from just a couple of yards out. 😮 Work for Spurs to do. #BBCFootball #TOTNFO https://t.co/zcLBofhvPF
⏰ It's HT in north London Spurs 1-1 Forest 🤝 What did you make of that half? 🤔
How has Chris Wood missed from there?! 😳 https://t.co/0kebcMCm7P
Chris Wood with the most Chris Wood approach to dealing with an open goal from three yards out. Smashing it as hard as he can. Fortunately for Spurs he hits the post.
How did that not go in? Forest push again and Vicario gets a strong hand to a shot from Yates to keep it out. But the rebound falls to Wood a few yards out - and he hammers his effort against the post and away. That could and possibly should have been 2-1 #NFFC
