Tottenham player ratings vs Aston Villa: Conor Gallagher comes up clutch! Midfielder drops clinic to guide Spurs out of relegation zone
Tottenham Dominate First Period
Tottenham are out of the Premier League relegation zone after capitalising on a sluggish Aston Villa performance and West Ham's defeat to Brentford a day prior to escape the bottom three on Sunday night, unexpectedly running out comfortable 2-1 winners over Unai Emery's out-of-sorts side at Villa Park.
Conor Gallagher's Clinical Finish
The north Londoners utterly dominated the first period against a Villa team that was heavily rotated ahead of their Europa League semi-final second leg against Nottingham Forest on Thursday. Conor Gallagher - who shone throughout - opened the scoring after just 12 minutes, controlling a clearance exquisitely on the edge of the box and arrowing a pinpoint finish into the bottom corner.
