Villa had now conceded 29 goals in the second-half of their games so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. They failed in their attempt to to win consecutive home games in the Premier League for the first time since May 2015.

Comments:

League position: 5th Timed at 93 minutes and 34 seconds, SON Heung-min's second goal became Tottenham Hotspur's latest winning goal in a game in the Premier League since Aaron Lennon's against Birmingham City on 29 August 2009 (94 minutes and 24 seconds). Toby Alderweireld became the first player to score a goal and an own goal in the first half of a game in the Premier League since Fabian Delph for Aston Villa versus West Bromwich Albion at Villa Park on 29 January 2014. He became the first Spurs player to do so in a game in the Premier League since Gareth Bale versus Liverpool on 28 November 2012. SON Heung-min became the sixth player to score 50 or more goals in the Premier League for Tottenham Hotspur after Harry Kane (136), Teddy Sheringham (97), Robbie Keane (91), Jermain Defoe (91) and Christian Eriksen (51). Tottenham Hotspur were awarded a penalty after 45 minutes following a VAR review. SON Heung-min's attempt was saved before he converted the rebound.
