Aston Villa boss Unai Emery praised the home support after their 2-0 win against Tottenham.
Villa won via goals from Jacob Ramsey and Douglas Luiz.
I'm very proud of our supporters and the work we are doing here at home, being very competitive.
Today we took one step ahead, getting better. The first half today we played a really good 45 minutes against a difficult team. We were trying to get into the top seven positions, like we are now, and fighting for a position in Europe.
Today it was very important to win, but mostly it was important to play well, connect with our supporters and try to get positive energy together."
Emery also said: When you are winning 2-0, they can score and you can take some doubts, but we have to continue being in control of the game, controlling possession and to keep our game plan. We did it.
The most important is to be consistent in our way. We are going to play next week against Liverpool away and against Brighton here.
Hopefully we can keep our option to be with them and have an opportunity to be in Europe."
