Ange Postecoglou was once again left frustrated as Tottenham suffered a disappointing defeat on the road, with Aston Villa claiming a crucial 2-0 victory to strengthen their bid for a top-five finish and a potential Champions League spot.
The breakthrough came just before the hour mark when Ezri Konsa found the net, giving Villa the lead. Moments later, Boubacar Kamara struck to double the advantage, all but sealing the result and igniting celebrations at Villa Park.
Aston Villa boss Unai Emery, beaming with confidence, was seen enthusiastically high-fiving fans before kick-off and received a hero’s welcome at full-time following another vital three points in their European push.
In contrast, Postecoglou’s side looked deflated, with early sparks—particularly from Son Heung-min—fading as the match wore on. With the Europa League final against Manchester United looming, this performance offered little encouragement for Spurs, who will need a significant response in Bilbao.
