Emiliano Buendia secured a late 2-1 victory for Aston Villa against Tottenham, marking their first away win of the season and extending their winning streak to five matches across all competitions. Tottenham initially took the lead with Rodrigo Bentancur scoring in the fifth minute, but Villa equalized through Morgan Rogers' impressive goal in the 37th minute. In the 77th minute, a standout play involving Matty Cash and Lucas Digne set up Buendia for the winning goal, described by Roy Keane as the "pass of the season." This defeat ended Tottenham's seven-match unbeaten run, highlighting their ongoing struggles at home, with only three wins in their last 18 Premier League matches at their new stadium. Aston Villa's rise under Unai Emery sees them climb to tenth place, just three points shy of the top four, while Tottenham drops to sixth.
