Tottenham Hotspur produced a dramatic late comeback to defeat ten-player Aston Villa 2-1 at Brisbane Road, with goals from Bethany England and Olivia Holdt in the closing stages sealing a memorable victory in their return to Barclays Women’s Super League action.

Heading into their final league fixture of the year, Spurs stay fifth in the table, level on points with North London rivals, Arsenal. Meanwhile Aston Villa sit in eighth place with only ten points on board.

Ellie Roebuck is a twenty-six-year-old goalkeeper who currently plays for Aston Villa Women in the Barclays Women’s Super League, following a return to England from Barcelona FC Women.

In 2019, at just twenty-years-old, she won the WSL Golden Glove award for keeping the most clean sheets in the season, setting a record for being the youngest goalkeeper to win the award at the time.

Known for playing an outfield style of goalkeeping, Roebuck tends to use her feet a lot, which made many think that she would suit Barcelona’s playing style perfectly, considering they are a very technical team.

Lynn Wilms is a twenty-five-year-old right centre-back for Aston Villa Women.

Wilms’ presence brings strength, intelligence and versatility to the Villains’ backline. She is comfortable on the ball and capable of playing both in central defence and as a right-sided fullback.

Having developed her game at FC Twente before shining with VFL Wolfsburg in Germany, Wilms is becoming a prominent choice for both club and country. Now continuing her journey with Aston Villa domestically, and the Netherlands internationally, she looks set to remain a key figure in the modern game, combining defensive solidity with attacking intent.
