Tottenham delivered a ruthless attacking display to thrash Aston Villa 7-3 in a 10-goal WSL thriller at Villa Park. Despite the comprehensive victory, manager Martin Ho expressed disappointment, suggesting his side could have scored five or six more goals after recording 27 shots in dismantling the struggling hosts.

Ho's Scandinavian connections proved decisive as Norway's Signe Gaupset opened the scoring, while Cathinka Tandberg came off the bench to net twice. Denmark's Olivia Holdt also contributed with a goal and assist. The result lifted Spurs to 29 points, level with Arsenal and just five behind second-placed Manchester United, maintaining their Champions League push.

Villa's defensive frailties continue to haunt them, conceding 25 goals in their past six league matches. Despite Kirsty Hanson's ninth goal of the season, manager Natalia Arroyo admitted her side were "thrown in a swimming pool and not allowed to get air." The defeat leaves Villa ninth with 16 points, just seven above relegation-threatened Leicester City.
