Well the day has come, 28.02.2010 where Spurs and Villa fans will be hoping to walk away with the first piece of silverware this year. With Spurs being touted as clear favourites it seemed that the all British/Irish Villa squad had it all to, especially as they were without top scorer Gabby Agbonlahor and Vice Captain Scott Parker. With a sell out of over 90,000 fans a great day was on the cards with both sets of fans were jovial mood. But which side will go home with smiles on their faces, only one team can win!
Build up to Carling Cup Final

What a day for the clubs and the fans, with expectation on both teams it was going to be a tough one to call. Most pundits were expecting a close game but at the same time still expecting Harry Redknapp's team to come out on top. The game kicked off and for the first 10 minutes both teams sat tight as you could see no one wanted to put a foot wrong in such a big game, but after 21 minutes the first real chance of the game came and with an open net to shoot at the England Under 21 striker Nathan Delfouneso made it 1-0 to Aston Villa.

Tottenham looked to respond quickly with a long range shot from Defoe that just whistled past Joe Hart's post, the first half was drawing to an end an Harry looked like he was ready to blow after seeing his players pefrom below par in this first half. But before he could let rip his team had a corner to defend, Downing looked to swing one into the far post it cleared the first defender Woodgate and there it was Villa captain Richard Dunne rose above Ledley King as he put a bullet of a header past Gomes the Spurs keeper 2-0! Villa fans were celebrating like mad, but was this a bit too premature. Villa boss David Beckham certainly looked delighted with how his teams first half performance had went.

The second half gets underway and we can see a slight change in attitude to the way Spurs are playing there game, attack attack attack! As time goes on Spurs look like they are getting more frustrated with numerous attempts on goal from outside the box, whilst Beckham's men look like they are taking a stroll in the park. Just past the hour mark and influencal Tottenham captain goes down injured, you guessed it he is taken off and goes straight down the tunnel.

With only 10 minutes to go Spurs throw caution to the wind and throw everyone up front whilst Beckham sets out his stall to defend and keep hold of this 2-0 lead.

Aston Villa have been pinned back in their own half for the last 10 minutes, but can they.............thats it its over Aston Villa have done it Villa boss Beckham runs onto the pitch to congratulate his player, they looked suprised themselves that they have done it what a great day for the club, fans and of course David Beckham picking up his first piece of silverware as a manager. With this victory Aston Villa have now also secured their space in next year's Europa League competition, this will be great news for Beckham as the players will be able to simply concentrate on their football without any added pressure. Lets just enjoy this moment!
Tottenham hit hard by lowly defeat
