Aston Villa faced Tottenham Hotspur at Villa Park earlier tonight, aiming for a much-needed home victory in the Premier League. The Villans struggled from the outset, conceding the first goal just 12 minutes in when Conor Gallagher found the net. Richarlison then extended Spurs’ lead in the 25th minute, leaving Unai Emery’s side trailing 2-0 at half-time.
Emi Buendia managed to score a late consolation goal for Aston Villa during injury time, but the team ultimately suffered a 2-1 defeat in front of their home supporters.
