Villa needed a win to keep alive any hopes of grabbing a European spot - and they went ahead after just eight minutes as Jacob Ramsey swept home a Leon Bailey cut back.

It stayed that way until 18 minutes from time - when Douglas Luiz's superb free kick put daylight between the sides.

Harry Kane fired home a late penalty for Spurs to make it a nervy finish for the home fans - but Villa held on to move up to seventh.
