Aston Villa put more pressure on a poor Tottenham side when they came away with a 2-1 Victory at white Hart Lane a win that’s puts them 4th in the league table were Tottenham stay rooted to the bottom.
The match started well but it only took 5 minutes for Villa to make their mark. Ashley young who has started the season very well feed the football to Gabriel Agbonlahor who scooted down the left flank & put in a superb low cross which went across goal & onto the far post & there was Reo-Coker to stoke the ball into the net with out even taking a first touch. That was his first league goal for Aston Villa but could have had a second later on but for his shot to hit the post.
Villa’s second goal did come though in the second half & it was a almighty blunder from the goal keeper from spurs Gomes. Gareth Barry started the move with a neat turn in his own half. He passed the football to Young who ran straight down the Tottenham middle of the pitch he skipped past Michael Dawson & then fired in a low hard skiddy shot that some how crept under the diving Gomes & into the net. A shot he should have saved & should be embarrassed about.
Tottenham did get back into the game with 4 minutes left when they created a attack that ended with a Jenas shot that cannoned off Daren Bent’s ankles & flew into the net. With Tottenham pushing they nearly conceded a 3rd as Jenas had to block a certain goal from sub Marlon Harewood. But it ended with Villa taking all 3 points & Tottenham have made there worse start to a premier league season..
