Matty Cash, with 7 tackles. Next: Lamare Bogarde 4, Morgan Rogers 3.

Matty Cash led Aston Villa with 7 tackles, nearly doubling Lamare Bogarde's tally. That individual defensive work on the flank was not enough to prevent a 1–2 defeat.

Which Tottenham Hotspur player won the most duels?

Randal Kolo Muani, with 11 duels won. Next: Pedro Porro 8, Kevin Danso 6.

Randal Kolo Muani led Tottenham Hotspur with 11 duels won, ahead of Pedro Porro's 8. Dominating individual battles proved crucial in securing the 1–2 away victory.

How is the rating calculated?

The rating measures a single match: what the player produced against what they cost, compared with the average for their position in that league and season, and adjusted by position (a 70 for a forward is as hard to get as a 70 for a defender). A normal match is around 50, 70 is already very good and only one in a hundred goes above 80. It is not the NVP, which ranks the whole season.
