Harry Kane scored twice in a comfortable victory over Nottingham Forest as Tottenham consolidated their place in the Premier League's top four and relieved some immediate pressure on manager Antonio Conte. Kane broke the deadlock with a trademark header from Pedro Porro's delivery before netting his 20th league goal of the season from the penalty spot following Joe Worrall's foul on Richarlison. The visitors were denied a second consolation by Fraser Forster, who saved Andre Ayew's late penalty after Dejan Kulusevski's handball. The former Everton frontman was denied his first league goal for Spurs by the video assistant referee, who ruled that he had strayed marginally offside from Oliver Skipp's pass. Kane became only the third player in Premier League history - after Sergio Aguero and Alan Shearer - to net 20 top-flight goals in six separate seasons.
