At 22:00 on February 16, Beijing time, in the 26th round of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur will be a guest at Villa Park Stadium against the newly promoted Aston Villa. Mourinho and Terry staged a "mentor and apprentice showdown". It is worth mentioning that the last time Tottenham won an away game was 63 days ago.
Before this campaign, Tottenham were sixth in the standings, 2 points behind fifth Sheffield United with one game less. For Villa, this home field is even more important. They are currently fourth from the bottom in the standings, only one point more than the relegation zone. According to statistics, Tottenham have not yet lost their 22-time league away appearance against newly promoted horses (18 wins and 4 draws).
In the 9th minute, Tottenham suffered a heavy blow. Al Gazi made a high-speed breakthrough along the right, and then sent a cross. Ald Vereld accidentally took an own goal and Tottenham fell behind 0-1. Seeing Aldweirelder's operation, his teammates had no choice but to stand up.
Aston Villa’s attack was simple and efficient. The goalkeeper found Al Gazi with his big feet, and the latter hurriedly sent a curved ball all the way, causing a low-level error by the Tottenham defender. The whole process only took 13 seconds.
In the 27th minute, Ald Vereld made up for it! Tottenham took a right corner kick, Aldweireld turned around and volleyed in the chaos in the penalty area, blasting the ball into the dead corner! Tottenham 1-1 Aston Villa!
In the German transfer market, the 30-year-old Belgian international is worth 35 million euros.
In the 2nd minute of stoppage time in the first half, Tottenham won a penalty kick, Reina made a great dedication and Sun Xingmin succeeded in a vigilant shot! 2-1, Spurs overtake the score! This is also Sun Xingmin's 50th goal in the Premier League.
