The second half saw some heated moments, including a red card for Tottenham’s Djed Spence in the 94th minute, after he received a second yellow card for a foul.

Overall, it was a hard-fought victory for Nottingham, who managed to defend resolutely and capitalize on their opportunity in the first half.
