End of 2nd Half
FT
FULL TIME - ASTON VILLA 0-4 TOTTENHAM
Mercifully for Villa, the final whistle blows. Having shown so much promise in the first half, the hosts failed to produce the same intensity after the break and Spurs finished them off ruthlessly.

YOUNG INSTANTLY BOOKED
... for scything down Kane as he goes on the counter-attack. That is the most cynical foul of the weekend, surely.

GOAL!
It's all over at Villa Park. Romero pings a long ball to Kane, who heads on to Son. He runs in behind and, with only Martinez to beat, finds the back of the net in style.

INGS GOES FOR THE SPECTACULAR
Having found a pocket of space outside the area, Ings looks to curl one. It drops just over the crossbar, but was close enough to make Lloris dive.

SON ALMOST GOES ONE-ON-ONE
... after a good ball from Kulusevski, but Emi Martinez rushes off his line to sweep up.

GOAL!
Well, well, well. For all Villa's dominance in the first half, they find themselves 2-0 down. Lloris thumps the ball upfield and Kane nods it down to Kulusevski, who evades Cash and Mings before rifling a shot into the far corner.

HT
HALF TIME - ASTON VILLA 0-1 TOTTENHAM
Spurs may be ahead, but they were second best for much of the first half. Villa have mustered up 14 shots, with seven on target, at the break, but have been thwarted by a combination of wayward finishing and excellent goalkeeping from Lloris.
45+4'
GOALKEEPING EXTRAVAGANZA
Ramsey wins a foul to the left of the box after tangling with Kulusevski. Coutinho steps up and curls his free kick towards the near corner, but Lloris makes another spectacular save and Ings fails to score on the follow-up.

LLORIS SAVES AGAIN!
Villa get a dangerous ball into the box and Lucas Digne nods it on to the onrushing Cash. He leathers a shot on the volley, but Lloris produces an improvised save.
