Aston Villa will look to build on this impressive victory as they host Ipswich Town in their next Premier League outing, while Spurs face a tough challenge at home against Manchester United. That wraps up our coverage for today. Thanks for joining Tribe for this match. Until next time, this is Sanil Karan signing off.

Spurs, plagued by mistakes and a lack of clinical finishing, failed to capitalize on the rare chances that came their way. Son had a particularly frustrating night, unable to make any impact in dangerous areas, and the team's inability to break down Villa's defense was evident. Though Martinez was called into action several times, Villa’s goalkeeper was rarely tested to the fullest. Tottenham’s late goal, courtesy of Tel’s composed finish in injury time, did give the home fans a flicker of hope, but it was ultimately too little too late to salvage a result. As the final whistle blew, Villa confirmed their superiority on the day, with the win being a fair reflection of the match. Spurs’ failure to mount any serious challenge once Villa got into the lead highlights the ongoing issues within the squad. For Villa, it was a well-earned victory that maintains their push for trophies, while Spurs now look ahead to their remaining European fixtures, hoping they can find some form on the continental stage. Their domestic season is effectively over, with questions continuing to swirl around their inconsistency and underperformance.

Tottenham’s disappointing domestic campaign takes another hit as they fall to Aston Villa in a game that marks a significant blow to their aspirations. With the result, Spurs’ chances of making any meaningful progress domestically this season are virtually over, leaving them with only the Europa League to focus on in the coming months. Villa, on the other hand, were the clear and deserved winners, dominating the match from start to finish. Early pressure from Villa paid off in the first minute when Ramsey’s clinical strike gave them the lead, a goal that set the tone for the entire game. Despite Spurs showing brief moments of attacking threat, they were second-best for the majority of the match. Villa’s defense remained solid throughout, and they were quick to break whenever Spurs lost possession. Rogers doubled their advantage in the second half, capping off a superb Villa display. Villa were composed in possession, dictating the tempo and constantly creating problems for Spurs, who struggled to get any meaningful control in the game.

Asensio links up with Rashford on the left with a neat one-two, before delivering a dangerous cutback across the face of the goal. However, none of the Villa players can get on the end of it, and Spurs clear their lines.

Son stands over the free kick from the left and curls the cross straight into the hands of Martinez, who easily claims it. That sums up his night—another wasted opportunity.

Rogers fouls Spence on the left as the Spurs full-back charges down the line, earning a free kick in a dangerous area. This presents Spurs with a prime opportunity to load the box and test Villa’s defense. The delivery could be crucial as they look to level things.

Kulusevski shows great patience as he holds the ball up, waiting for the perfect moment to deliver. He sends another ball into the box, but Martinez is alert and claims it comfortably.

SPURS GET A LIFELINE! Kulusevski once again proves to be the source of inspiration as he delivers a perfectly weighted ball into the left side of the box after cutting inside off the right flank. Tel takes control and, with calm composure, slots the ball into the far right corner with a deft finish. A clinical strike from him, and Spurs are back in this match!
