Tottenham Hotspur failed to score in the Premier League once again, but this time they avoided defeat. Roberto De Zerbi's side played out a goalless draw away to Nottingham Forest, earning their first point of the 2026/27 Premier League season.

It was a game short on clear-cut chances. Across more than 90 minutes, there were just two shots on target — both produced by the hosts. Nottingham Forest thought they had broken the deadlock in the second half, but the goal was ruled out for handball.

For Ukrainian football fans, however, the biggest moment came with the long-awaited return of Mykhailo Mudryk. The winger made his first competitive appearance since November 2024 and marked his Premier League debut for his new club.

Mudryk came off the bench in the 74th minute and, although he had limited time to make an impact, he played a part in one of the game's final moments by winning a free-kick in stoppage time.
