The first thirty minutes were poor, the conditions didn't help, and Villa's very organise and fast pressing game compacted the game and didn't allow Holtby to get on the ball. After getting through that pressure there is always going to be tired legs, which gives the likes of Townsend a little more space, and he capitalised.
Well done spurs.
Benteke's miss was a big let off, and well done for actually going and winning the tie with our second. Far too often Spurs have missed those opportunities.
Great result, and even more pleasing to see Sandro come through unscathed, and Chinriches play 90 mins. I have always like Vertongan at left back, and when Kaboul regains full fitness I see him partnering Dawson next to Vertogan with his pace to offer cover.
Wasn't one of Siggi's best games, but he has been a threat of late and deserves to keep his spot. It will be interesting to see how Lennon responds to the inverted winger system AVB likes.
