Aston Villa midfielder Emi Buendia was delighted after victory at Tottenham on Sunday.

The Argentine scored in the 2-0 win.

He said, "It's an amazing win away. We needed to show everyone that we were capable of winning away, especially against a top team so we take the three points.

"We knew before the game that we had to suffer, be compact so everyone showed that character. We were ruthless in front of goal."

On working under Unai Emery, Buendia said: "As soon as they came here, they told us we needed to win more points away from home and playing a top side like Tottenham team away and winning, we are very happy."

On Argentina winning the World Cup, he added: "I enjoyed every game, supporting my country, really proud of all the players. We needed Lionel Messi and I'm happy for him and obviously really proud of my team-mate Emi Martinez."
