"Tottenham" team strategist Mauricio Pochettino triumphs.
"Spurs" managed to defy experts' predictions and advance to the Champions League semi-finals. This was determined by a narrow 3-4 loss in the second leg against "Man City," while the first match at the "Tottenham" stadium ended with a 1-0 result.
"I am very happy. Because of this night, because of such a victory in the most important tournament in the world.
"I feel proud of the efforts put in by each player. They are heroes. After everything that happened this season, after all the consequences, to be in the Champions League semi-finals... They deserve only words of praise.
Describing this team, there is no need to talk about players and names.
"We always maintain the same spirit, ideas, and philosophy," said M. Pochettino.
"You must believe in the VAR system, whether it helps you or not. As I have said before, the decision to include video reviews will change the game.
"I am a professional, so I try to help the referees, but last year I was a little worried, and I feel the same today.
"When a decision favors you, you must accept it, and when a decision goes against you, you cannot argue, for example, when a penalty was awarded in the first meeting."
