Quick Glance: Tottenham Secures Fourth Place with 3-1 Victory against Forest
- Securing a convincing 3-1 home win over relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest on Sunday, Tottenham Hotspur has bolstered their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League and moved up to fourth place in the Premier League.

- With the victory, Tottenham now sits tied with Villa at 60 points, but with one game still to play. Forest remains in 17th place with 25 points from 32 games, ahead of third-to-last Luton Town on goal difference.
- Van de Ven unleashed an impressive long-range goal after 52 minutes to restore Spurs' lead, with Pedro Porro calming their nerves six minutes later with a fantastic finish.
