Aston Villa compound Tottenham’s misery despite late rally
Aston Villa won 3-2 in north London, leaving Roberto De Zerbi's men without a league win this season.
Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League goal drought ended on a sour note as Aston Villa secured a 3-2 victory in a north London match on Saturday, further compounding the miserable start for Roberto De Zerbi's team. The visitors had dominated the game, leading 3-0, but Villa's new signings Johan Manzambi and Nicolas Jackson scored either side of halftime to give Unai Emery's side their first league win of the season.
Despite Tottenham's late consolation goal, the damage was done. The new-look Villa team now looks set to storm up the table, in contrast to Spurs' continued struggles.
