Tottenham slump to 3-2 home defeat against Aston Villa in Swedish clash

Tottenham have had a poor start to the Premier League season, losing 3-2 at home to Aston Villa.

Neither Tottenham nor Aston Villa had managed a win in their first four league games, and there were anxious moments early in the Premier League clash.

Lucas Bergvall started on the bench for “Spurs.” However, Aston Villa’s starting XI included Victor Nilsson Lindelöf.

Tottenham started brightly but struggled to turn their advantage into chances, and instead it was the visitors who struck just before half-time. Johan Manzambi stayed in the penalty area and headed home a low cross.

In the second half, Aston Villa extended their lead to 3–0 before "Spurs" pulled one back twice. It was the team's first goal of the season.

Tottenham is in 18th place in the table. Aston Villa moves up to 15th.
