    He's being led off by the Bournemouth medical staff currently.

    Both teams were really going for it and Everton were relentless.

    They did not give up and had some good chances. Spurs had just enough to get over the line.

    FT: Tottenham 2-1 Everton

    Arnaut Danjuma could not have been closer at the end there for Everton.

    He was inches onside but initially given offside, blasted it off the underside of the crossbar and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario kept it from creeping over the line by cms.

    The VAR review would have overturned the decision had it gone in, and awarded it a goal with Danjuma in fact onside, but Vicario did his bit.

    This is crazy. It really is.

    Tottenham have the ball down one side of the pitch and then within one pass, it's three against two.

    Oh my word!!!! It's kept off the line by Guglielmo Vicario but it's offside. Hearts in the mouths of every Spurs fan.

    GOAL - Nottingham Forest 2-3 Bournemouthpublished at 16:56 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2023

    Dominic Solanke (hat-trick)

    Heartbreak for Forest.

    Adam Smith sends a cross from about 25 yards and it is another superb header from Dominic Solanke. He meets it about 12 yards from goal and generates a lot of power to send it out of the reach of Matt Turner.

    It has been a very good hat-trick from Solanke and Bournemouth are closing on a fifth Premier League win in their past six games.

    Everton on the break... It's three on tour... Arnaut Danjuma blasts it just over the bar!

    What are Tottenham doing? They could throw away a two-goal lead here if they are not careful.

    Nottingham Forest 2-2 Bournemouth

    Bournemouth angle a ball into Kieffer Moore, but he can't get that much power on the header because he's back-pedalling.

    He tries to find Dominic Solanke but Matt Turner comes out and claims.

    Good keeping.
