Tottenham fans not only enjoyed their 2-0 victory over Nottingham Forest on Friday evening, but also some impressive individual performances.
Among those performances was Guglielmo Vicario’s spectacular save in the last minutes of play, in which he used his feet to keep out an attempt from Harry Toffolo.
Following Morgan Gibbs-White‘s corner kick, Toffolo made a strong headed attempt on goal, with Vicario managing to make a last-ditch save to keep the clean sheet for the visitors.
Falling backwards, the Italian keeper threw his feet forward to deny Forest a late goal.

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher sang the praises of the former Serie A goalkeeper: ‘How’s he kept that out? Unbelievable save, he’s going backwards!
‘I thought it was a certain goal. That’s absolutely fantastic. Unbelievable.’ Carragher added.
Richarlison was also amongst Tottenham’s impressive players, scoring the opening goal for the visitors with a cool header from Dejan Kulusevski‘s cross.
Kulusevski, who was awarded Player of the Match, was a strong attacking player for Postecoglou’s Lilywhites at the City Ground, scoring and assisting on the night.
However, among the not so impressive performances was Yves Bissouma, who picked up his second red card of the season, ruling him out of next weeks Everton clash.
Destiny Udogie was also booked in the immediate aftermath of Bissouma’s sending off, meaning he will also miss Tottenham’s upcoming match against Everton.
Bissouma’s red card is the fourth Spurs have been shown this season, with the 27-year-old previously being sent off against Luton for diving that earned him a second yellow card in the match.
It was upgraded from a yellow on the advice of the VAR. Bissouma will be banned for four games and Destiny Udogie also miss the next match, at home against Everton, after collecting his fifth yellow card of the season.
