The Tottenham Hotspur is in a fierce fight in search of his pass to the Europa League . The London team played a momentous match against Aston Villa .

The young side had a day to forget. The Spanish footballer was involved, negatively, in the two goals of Aston Villa . In the first instance and, in an attempt to clear, the defender declared one of the most unusual own goals in the Premier League .
This error produced equality in the scoreboard, after Steven Bergwijn will overtake the local team. Everything seemed to indicate that after the fortuitous play, Tottenham was going to recover and begin to deploy their football with the intention of regaining the advantage.
However, Reguilón’s nightmare had a second part . Later in the game, the Spaniard tried to clear the ball a couple of times to no avail. This allowed the Aston Villa to take the ball and Ollie Watkins to sentence the comeback of “Los Villanos” .
Although the London team tried to recover from these hard blows, they ran into an immense Emiliano Martínez that sustained the result for Villa. The “Citizen”, Harry Kane , could not be decisive in one of his last games with the Spurs, after requesting your departure .
Finally the match concluded with the defeat of Tottenham. The fans expressed their displeasure by booing the footballers just after the referee whistled the end of the match .
The fans of the English team wasted no time and began to make fun of the Spanish through social networks.
That Reguilon OG is even sweeter with Titanic Music…
