Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham History
A number of players have represented both Nottingham Forest and Tottenham over the years. One prominent example would be Michael Dawson, who came through the youth system at the City Ground before playing 91 games for the senior side ahead of a big-money move to Tottenham in January 2005, a move that saw Andy Reid also move in the same direction.
Dawson went on to play 324 times for Tottenham, captaining the team at times, before moving to Hull City in 2014. He returned to Nottingham Forest in May 2018 and played another 32 times before retiring from the game.
Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Head to Head
When Antonio Conte’s side traveled to the City Ground in August 2022, it was ahead of the first league meeting between Nottingham Forest and Tottenham in over 20 years. On this occasion, Harry Kane’s double saw the North London side ease to a 2-0 win, but it was a different story when the two met again just a couple of months later.
On this occasion, Conte fielded a less experienced eleven and paid the price, with Renan Lodi and Jesse Lingard both getting on the scoresheet in a 2-0 EFL Cup win that also saw Orel Mangala sent off.
The most famous meeting between Nottingham Forest and Tottenham came in the 1991 FA Cup Final. Stuart Pearce gave Forest the lead at Wembley Stadium after just 15 minutes, and they retained the lead until half-time, with Paul Gascoigne having already been hauled off with a serious injury.
Paul Stewart scored for Terry Venables’ side after 53 minutes, and the game went into extra time, and the game was settled when experienced Forest defender Des Walker scored an unfortunate own goal to hand the cup to Tottenham.
In 2005 Forest earnt a draw at White Hart Lane in the FA Cup and then hosted Tottenham in the replay, where they were swept aside thanks to goals from Noe Pamarot, Robbie Keane, and Ahmed Mido.
In 1995/96, Nottingham Forest had the upper hand over their opponents. In February 1996, two goals from Ian Woan at White Hart Lane earned Frank Clark’s side a Fifth Round Replay, and they duly beat Tottenham on penalties after a 1-1 draw.
That April, in Premier League action, Steve Stone and Ian Woan netted in a 2-1 win, with Chris Armstrong responding for Spurs.
