"In the end we managed to take a couple but I think we deserved it. We had to dig deep and find another level when it mattered. The whole season we've been grinding out results here and there. "Obviously we'd like to be higher up the table in the league and doing better in the Champions League, but we're still fighting."

"It's another game we must win, we want to have the possibility to go to the next stage," said Pochettino, who praised his players' efforts after an arduous run of four games in eight days.
