FA CUP!! Tottenham Continue Incredible Form With 2-0 Victory Against Aston Villa
Tottenham kept up the momentum from their win over Chelsea with a 2-0 victory against Aston Villa in the FA Cup third round.
Spurs took their time to swat off a dogged Villa side, but late goals from Ben Davies and Heung-Min Son broke the visitor’s resistance.
The result means Spurs have now won their last six matches in all competitions following a fruitful festive period.
Eric Dier and Toby Alderweireld were the only survivors from the Chelsea victory as Pochettino made nine changes, allowing Harry Kane – whose wife gave birth on Sunday – and Christian Eriksen to have the weekend off. Wednesday’s match-winner Dele Alli was among the substitutes.
Aston Villa made four changes to their defeat at Cardiff, handing a debut to on-loan Manchester United goalkeeper Sam Johnstone. With Jonathan Kodjia away on African Cup of Nations duty, Gabriel Agbonlahor was handed a rare start and was tasked with leading the line on his own against the watertight Spurs back four.
