Tottenham Climbs Out of Relegation Zone with Win at Aston Villa

Roberto De Zerbi said Spurs showed their best form of the season and urged balance after back-to-back league wins lifted them one point clear of West Ham.

  • On Saturday, Tottenham defeated Aston Villa 2-1 at Villa Park, with first-half goals from Conor Gallagher and Richarlison securing the victory and allowing the club to leapfrog West Ham in the Premier League table.
  • Aston Villa appeared distracted by their upcoming Europa League semi-final second leg against Nottingham Forest on Thursday, producing what was described as their worst display of the season despite Emiliano Buendia's late consolation goal.
  • Spurs manager Roberto De Zerbi praised the performance, noting his squad registered back-to-back league victories for the first time since August, emphasizing the importance of maintaining balance with three games remaining.
  • Villa manager Unai Emery defended his decision to make seven changes, stating he remains proud of the squad, noting these same players had previously achieved a winning streak three months ago.
  • With three games left, Tottenham prepares for a home match against Leeds next week; the club currently sits above the relegation zone, though the manager warned players must remain focused to secure their Premier League status.
