De Zerbi Hails Tottenham Response After Vital Win at Villa.

Roberto De Zerbi believes Tottenham Hotspur F.C. has overcome its “mental
problem” after a crucial 2-1 win over Aston Villa F.C. lifted them out of the relegation
zone.

Conor Gallagher opened the scoring with a long-range strike before Richarlison
doubled the lead with a first-half header.

Emiliano Buendía pulled one back late on, but Spurs held on for a vital second
straight win.

“I think it was a mental problem,” De Zerbi said. “These two wins, I hope we can play
with more confidence and better mentality.”

The result moves Tottenham one point clear of the bottom three with three games
remaining, boosting hopes of survival after a difficult season.
