Mauricio Pochettino

I think to congratulate, we need to congratulate our player.

Massive effort after a very difficult three games against Manchester City.

And I think today, tough game.

I think it was a really difficult opposition.

I think Brighton was so, so, so tough to break down.

It was difficult for us, but in the end we can get the three points that are most important for us.

Yeah, it was difficult, you know, because not only you need fresh legs that wasn't today and then the way that you are going to think and...

to have the clarity to find that space or the last pass to block the opponent when it's so deep.

But of course, one of the qualities of Christian is to show this afternoon how he is and the quality of shooting from outside to the box.

I think it was an amazing goal and congratulate him, congratulate the team because we are doing a massive effort and I am so proud.

Had you started to think the goal wasn't coming?

No, really not.

I was always hoping to score.

I was thinking 88 minutes in the next action and the next action.

I think we never gave up.

That was the most important, of course.

I think more than 20 shots

Then the reward is massive because the three points for us put us in a very good position on the table, a strong position.

Now it's in our hands to be on the top four next season.

But that shows how difficult it is to compete in that league.
