Aston Villa‘s Jacob Ramsey struck inside the first minute and Morgan Rogers added a second-half goal to secure a 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur and lift their side into the FA Cup fifth round for the first time in 10 years on Sunday at Villa Park.
Villa took 58 seconds to score when Rogers waltzed forward virtually unchallenged before sending the ball into Ramsey’s path. The 23-year-old fired straight at Antonin Kinsky who got two hands on it but the ball slipped through them into the net.
Rogers doubled the home side’s lead in the 64th minute when Pedro Porro could not clear Leon Bailey‘s cross and Rogers was there to slot home the loose ball from close range.
Spurs’ new signing Frenchman Mathys Tel from Bayern Munich pulled one back in the 91st minute when he flicked home Dejan Kulusevski‘s cross but the hosts held out to claim the victory.
