Taiwo Awoniyi was in action for Nottingham Forest as they defeated Tottenham Hotspurs 2-0 in the EFL Cup at the City Ground on Wednesday, November 9.

Steve Cooper's side recorded their first win in their last four matches.

Two second-half goals from Renan Lodi and Jesse Lingard condemned Antonio Conte's side to yet another defeat.

Awoniyi, who featured for 62 minutes was impressive for Steve Cooper's side as the Spurs defence struggled to cope with his constant threat upfront.

However, his Super Eagles teammate Emmanuel Dennis saw the game from the bench.

The win qualifies Forest for the fourth round of the competition.
