Tottenham head into the international break without a win in the Premier League after losing 3-2 at home to Aston Villa.

Roberto De Zerbi's expensively assembled side were hit by goals from Johan Manzambi, Nicolas Jackson and Emi Buendia which handed Villa an important win - their first of the season.

Conor Gallagher at least got Spurs' first goal of the season late on, followed up by a Jan Paul van Hecke header, but it was nothing more than a consolation and too little too late.

After a bright start from Spurs where they forced Zion Suzuki into four saves inside the first 20 minutes, Villa hit Tottenham with a sucker punch - with captain Micky Van de Ven off the pitch after he took a whack to the face from Tyrone Mings, Manzambi fired in. Spurs' goal drought appeared over on the hour mark when Sandro Tonali played in Andy Robertson and Mohammed Kudus poked in his cross, but VAR ruled it was offside. A wonderful effort by Buendia from 25 yards made the victory safe for Villa and sparked 'you're getting sacked in the morning' chants by the away faithful. Ahead of the extended break, Spurs find themselves in the relegation zone and have only won five of their last 36 matches at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
