«RESULT IS NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT OF THIS GAME» - POCHETTINO
Tottenham coach Mauricio Pochettino enjoyed the Spurs' display against Real Madrid (1-1) at the Santiago Bernabeu, arguing that there are more important aspects than the final result.
"The result is not the most important today. Competing in this way against Real Madrid is what makes me happier. It is not only the tactics that are important, the mental aspects are fundamental in these games. We are still growing, but we have taken an important step tonight, "said the Argentine coach, in statements reproduced by UEFA.
Pochettino highlighted the performance of Frenchman Hugo Lloris and stressed that the final accounts of the group are not yet defined:
"We have three games to play. We are in a good position, but the accounts are only made at the end. This tie is a fair result: we had our chances and our goalkeeper made some great saves. Hugo was fantastic, he showed all his category. We saw today why he is one of the best in the world. "
