Solid win for Spurs today. I looked at the clock at about 38 minutes and I was a little concerned. It's a performance we've seen before from them where they look good and have all kinds of chances for the first half, but let the other team off the hook. The goal from Kane at 45' was big. Then they got another fairly early in the 2nd half and it was basically over. Villa had a couple of chances late, but by then Spurs were on total cruise control.
So the gap is down to 2 again, with Leicester playing Newcastle tomorrow. That should be a win for them, but you never know I guess. Spurs get eliminated against Dortmund this week (almost a certainty at this point) and then host Bournemouth at home. They handled them well at Bouremouth earlier this year and at this stage of the season they need a win again. It could still be an exciting run over the last games!
