Tottenham Women boss Rehanne Skinner pinpoints what went wrong after late defeat to Aston Villa

Tottenham head coach Rehanne Skinner expressed her frustration at her side’s inability to create enough chances as they lost 1-0 to a late Ramona Petzelberger header against Aston Villa.

The defeat is a huge blow to Spurs’ hopes of qualifying for the Champions League and now leaves them ten points behind third-placed Manchester United. Spurs dominated most of the game but Skinner said her side must do better at both ends of the pitch going forward.

She said: “There were certainly opportunities we had, but I think our final ball was lacking a little bit in the first half so we’re overrunning things, making chances hard to come by. The attitude was there to try and get into those goal-scoring opportunities, but I don’t think we created enough clear-cut chances today.”
