Nuno Espirito Santo said his Nottingham Forest side were embracing being in the race for Champions League football and in an FA Cup semi-final after they beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 away on Monday.

Forest jumped back up to third in the table and are in pole position out of the five clubs slugging it out for the Champions League spots behind Liverpool and Arsenal.
"We are in a fight that nobody expected, us included," Espirito Santo said.
"We are in the mix against big teams and that only can make us proud. And we embrace the challenge," the former Spurs manager added.
Forest took a two-goal lead within the first 16 minutes with goals from Elliot Anderson and Chris Wood and then soaked up Tottenham's pressure. They cracked in the 87th minute when Richarlison headed home, but held on to emerge victorious.
