There are a few minutes left for Tottenham to return to the table: dozens compared to Aston Villa just like the last quarter of an hour, Spurs on the scoreboard three but in the final for the final in large part (4-1). A success which allows Ange Postecoglou’s men to move up to 7th and come back to within two points of their opponent of the day, 5th and who take advantage of the opportunity to get on the podium.
Fairly balanced, the first period saw its first highlight on a poorly returned corner from Lucas Digne that Morgan Rodgers, who was leading from there, pushed deep one meter from the empty goal (0-1, 32nd). An advantage erased upon returning from the locker room by Brennan Johnson, in the right place to take a diving cross from Son Heung-min (1-1, 49th). If Dominik Solanke (51st) for Tottenham and Diego Carlos (64th) for Villa have two of them during the meeting with the first team, it is the first which is completely unlocked.
Double of Solanké
This season, the English butcher, author of the two goals before this meeting, was available in total at 19 in the previous year with Bournemouth, hitting twice in four minutes. The small pinnacle of the right first, well launched by a small deep pass from Dejan Kulusevski (2-1, 75th), the flat of the left foot then in the wake of a high recovery from Pape Matar Sarr (3 -1 , 79th).
Made up by Maddison, author of a superb French shot (4-1, 90th+6), the score confirms that Spurs, winners of Manchester City in the League Cup during the season, are returning to form.
