Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino insists that his side deserved a point from their 2-2 draw with West Ham United, despite having to rely on a Harry Kane goal deep into injury time to get something from the game.
Spurs trailed the Hammers 2-0 after goals from Cheikhou Kouyate and Diafra Sakho, but earned a point after Danny Rose pulled one back and Kane pounced on the rebound of his late penalty which had been saved by Adrian.
"When you analyse the full 90 minutes I think we deserved one point," Pochettino is quoted by BBC Sport as saying. "We started very well, had three chances to score, including the one where Kane hit the post.
"When they scored it was difficult for us to play, because they play very deep and the counter attack is very good for West Ham with Sakho and Enner Valencia who are very fast. But in the second half I thought some decisions were against us - the second goal was offside. But we need to finish better and score more goals.
"I think we showed character - that's the most important thing. Going into the last 10 minutes at 2-0 down, to finish the game 2-2 is something to be proud of."
Spurs continue their season when they travel to Italy to face Fiorentina in the second leg of their Europa League last-32 tie on Thursday.
