Tottenham are in a do-or-die situation. |
Nottingham Forest put on a show of strength by crushing Sunderland 5-0 away from home in the 34th round of the Premier League.
This victory brings Forest's total points to 39 with four rounds remaining in the season. They only need one more draw to reach 40 points, a figure generally considered safe in the relegation battle.
This result has intensified the relegation battle between West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur. West Ham currently have 33 points, while Tottenham only have 31 points ahead of this crucial weekend's match.
While Forest are almost out of danger, the pressure is now on the two big names in London, putting them in a precarious position. Just one more slip-up and the nightmare of relegation could become a reality.
One fan wrote on X: "So the relegation battle is now just a shootout between Spurs and West Ham. Shocking!" Another added: "Oh my God, Spurs should prepare for relegation."
Meanwhile, many people focused on another sarcastic comment: "If West Ham just do their job well, this will be the best taunt in England."
The biggest highlight was the visitors' explosive first half. Forest led 4-0 after just 45 minutes, setting an unprecedented milestone in the club's history by scoring four goals in the first half of an away game in England's top league.
It all started with an own goal by Trai Hume. Then, Forest unleashed a devastating attack with three goals in just six minutes.
Chris Wood scored in the 31st minute. Three minutes later, Morgan Gibbs-White added his name to the scoresheet after having previously assisted. Then, Igor Jesus made it 4-0, causing the home fans to leave the stadium en masse just before halftime.
In the second half, Forest played more cautiously but still managed to score another goal in injury time through Elliot Anderson to seal a nightmare night for Sunderland.
