Tottenham vs Aston Villa LIVE: Premier League result and reaction as Solanke double completes Spurs turnaround

27 mins

Villa have some respite here and they’ll look to fire the ball into the box – but it’s straight to Vicario.

The ‘keeper finds Kulusevski on the break and his eventual cross is taken off Son’s boot, before Johnson latches onto the end of a through ball but can only direct his cross right at Martinez.

25 mins

It’s Spurs in the ascendancy in this one, though they can’t find a way through yet. The ball over the top of the defence is collected easily enough by Martinez, who releases it to Rogers, and the England U21 man wins a foul off Pape Sarr.

23 mins

Not a bad effort from Bentancur as his effort from 20 yards clips the top of the netting as it goes over.

22 mins

The corner falls to Sarr and he tries to recreate his Carabao Cup heroics, but it hits an offside Johnson. Moments later, Spurs have it back as Onana catches Son’s heel.

Some great touches from Kulusevski in the box win Spurs another corner – they’re beginning to look the sharper of the two sides.

20 mins

Overall, this game has probably been exactly what you’d expect from two evenly matched teams who are competing for the same prize (of fourth place).

Not a good game for the neutral, and neither side has been able to gain a real foothold.

Spurs come forward again and Udogie wins a corner after good tracking from Onana.

18 mins

It’s a poor corner routine but Spurs win it back and Kuusevski fires in a dangerous cross, but Villa manage to get it clear eventually. Spurs come again but it’s wasteful as Bentancur’s effort from distance flies over and wide.

16 mins

A somewhat subdued atmosphere at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at the moment, as McGinn is brought down by Bentancur. Villa opt to build from the back rather than put the ball in the box, and they knock it around near the Spurs box before Udogie does well to dispossess McGinn.

Spurs counter and Johnson also does well to get a corner after Kulusevski’s mistimed pass.

13 mins

Spurs winna free-kick not far from the Villa box and they have the first opportunity to deliver a dangerous ball in. Son takes but Solanke can only head it wide – not a bad routine though.

12 mins

Villa get away with one as Martinez’s pass is short, but Johnson can’t get it under control.

Spurs are beginning to dominate possession, but there’s not a lot of urgency or penetration at the moment.

10 mins

Both teams are still wrestling for control of this game early on, Villa are happy to let Spurs have the ball around halfway, with Spurs looking to press a little higher.
