Half-Time Report: Tottenham Hotspur in control against Aston Villa

Tottenham Hotspur are in command of their Premier League clash with Aston Villa as they lead Paul Lambert's side 3-0 at the break at White Hart Lane.

Tottenham Hotspur are 45 minutes away from securing their place in the Europa League next season as they lead Aston Villa 3-0 at the break in their clash on the final day of the Premier League season.

The home side started the game well and could have taken the lead when Emmanuel Adebayor released the run of Harry Kane, but the striker's shot was well saved by Brad Guzan.

Guzan was powerless to stop Spurs from taking the lead in the 14th minute when Paulinho burst through the middle and fired a shot at the keeper, who made the initial stop, but couldn't stop the rebound from finding the net.

Tottenham doubled their lead when Danny Rose raided down the flank and crossed in for Adebayor who tried to flick an effort goalwards, and it deflected off Nathan Baker and into the net.

Tim Sherwood's side made it three just before the break when they were awarded a penalty as Sandro's shot hit the arm of Gabriel Agbonlahor. Adebayor took the spot kick and dispatched it with ease past Guzan.
