Events

Match Events

  • 0' That's the starting whistle at City Ground, Nottingham. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Nottingham Forest FC and Tottenham Hotspur FC.
  • 5' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 10' The 23-year-old Antonin Kinsky has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 15' Tottenham Hotspur FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 20' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 25' Savio is a natural forward and has been asked to do a very specific job for Tottenham Hotspur FC tonight.
  • 30' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 35' With 1 assists to his name this season, Murillo is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Tottenham Hotspur FC.
  • 40' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 45' Destiny Udogie has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 45.
  • 50' Mateus Fernandes has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 8 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 52' Controversy at the stadium! Nikola Milenkovic argues furiously but the card stands.
  • 57' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Nottingham Forest FC and Tottenham Hotspur FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 59' Fresh legs for Nottingham Forest FC! Daniel Munoz comes on to replace Ola Aina.
  • 61' The Tottenham Hotspur FC manager makes a substitution. Destiny Udogie departs to be replaced by Andrew Robertson.
  • 66' Magnificent from Neco Williams! That is 5 goals in 415 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 71' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Morgan Gibbs-White suffering a number of foals already.
  • 74' A change in the Tottenham Hotspur FC ranks — Mathys Tel exits the field as Mykhailo Mudryk enters on 74.
  • 78' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for James McAtee.
  • 83' Mateus Fernandes has so much to prove this time. He replaces Conor Gallagher on 83 minute.
  • 84' Tottenham Hotspur FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Dominic Solanke is hanging Omar Marmoush on the field on 84 minute.
  • 84' That is a card for Tottenham Hotspur FC. Mateus Fernandes will be fuming at that decision.
  • 89' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Nottingham Forest FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 90' The whistle greets Murillo as he departs to be replaced by Ousmane Diomande.
  • Game over. The scoreline of 0-0 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
