Analysis: Tottenham's Comeback
Tottenham's victory over Nottingham Forest was a major boost to their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League. Spurs had been winless in their previous three league matches, but they showed resilience to come back from a goal down and secure the three points.
Forest, meanwhile, remain in the relegation zone despite a spirited performance. The newly promoted side has struggled to adapt to the Premier League and will need to find some consistency if they want to avoid relegation.
The win over Nottingham Forest was a timely boost for Tottenham, who have now won two of their last three league matches. Spurs will be hoping to continue their good form when they host Brentford in their next match on Boxing Day.
