GOAL: Emi Buendia heads in for Villa late on. #AVFC 1-2 Tottenham
On BlueskyJacob Tanswell
Full time: #AVFC 1-2 Spurs Villa finish the game with the first shot on target in the 96th minute. A pitiful performance. Empty seats were increasingly visible by the end. Only cranks up the already huge pressure on Thursday, where they simply have to perform.

Oddly but tellingly, it is probably the most introverted, least intense you'll see Unai Emery on the touchline this season. #AVFC

No changes for Villa at half time. #AVFC

HT: Terrible first half performance from Villa. They didn't register a single shot and were second-best all over the pitch, handing Tottenham a huge chance to secure back-to-back league wins for the first time since August. Boos from the home fans. #AVFC 0-2 Tottenham

HT: #AVFC 0-2 Spurs Scoreline merciful on Villa. Stats may not tell the full story all the time, but a pretty good reflection, here. 38% possession, 1 touch in the opposition box, 0 shots, 0 xG, half as many passes in the opposition half compared to Spurs and frequent boos.

45% of all #AVFC passes have been between Lindelof and Mings.

Villa Park imploring/pleading the ball to be moved quicker. Slow, controlled build-up is what #AVFC have always done under Emery, but there has to be a change of speed/gears. Emery, oddly, very reserved on the touchline.

No pressure on the cross or, actually, any Spurs player in the first 25 minutes. Genuinely terrible so far. Villa Park has tried its hardest to cajole its players. #AVFC
