"The condition of the pitch made it difficult to play how we usually play but we showed great maturity. We need to feel proud for the players, it was a great effort after only playing 48 hours ago."
Tottenham were helped out against Watford when defender Nathan Ake was sent off for a needless challenge on Lamela with 35 minutes left on the clock.
