The match at Villa Park is still ongoing, but the first half belonged entirely to the visitors.

After a bright start, Tottenham doubled their lead in the 25th minute when Richarlison scored a thumping header from vicious Mathys Tel cross. As the ball hit the back of the net, De Zerbi couldn’t contain himself.

The Italian tactician was spotted sprinting onto the grass in a display of pure emotion.
