Aston Villa 0-2 Tottenham: Paul Lambert 'happy with progress'

Manager Paul Lambert is "happy with Aston Villa's progress", despite a 2-0 home Premier League defeat to Tottenham.

Andros Townsend gave Tottenham the lead with a first half free-kick which eluded everyone to find the far corner and Roberto Soldado made sure of all three points with a well-taken effort in the second half.

Villa have failed to keep a Premier League clean sheet at home since December 2012 and are 13th in the table.
