“That was our first target in this season, to go through to the next round in the Champions League. Myself and the players, everybody conceded the game ended. But imagine if this game finished a draw. “In the last part of the game, everybody conceded the game ended and for this reason we made a big mistake. Maybe also the stadium and the fans. The game finishes when the referee whistles three times.

"In two weeks time there will be another final against Sporting at home and we have to create a special atmosphere. When you want to be a top team you have to be able to control games like this one better. He said: "At the end, what we all want is to go to the next round.

Son Heung-Min inspired Tottenham to a crucial victory as Antonio Conte's side held it together against last season's Europa League winners.

All four teams in the group have showcased their best and worst, so it would be foolish to predict how it will all turn out. The Tottenham forward was sensational and made his early-season form slump seem a distant memory. From that point on, Spurs were in control, and they produced a mature performance to eventually overcome a Frankfurt team built in their own image -- three at the back and plenty of pace in forward positions. [Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg](https://www.espn.com.au/football/player/_/id/159543/Pierre-Emile-Hojbjerg)'s cross put the game beyond Frankfurt, but while he didn't score or create any of Tottenham's goals, Richarlison's contribution was hugely important for Antonio Conte's team. With each team picking up at least one win so far, it is the tightest of all eight groups this season, and the table could be turned on its head again on matchday five next week. It left his team with an impossible mountain to climb. Kane, Son and Richarlison now have 16 goals between them this season, and while Kane has more than half of them (9), the collective strength of Conte's front three was evident against Frankfurt. On the contrary, they held their nerve and equalised through Son within six minutes of Frankfurt's opener. When the Bundesliga side took a 14th-minute lead through Kamada, it looked like bad news for Spurs against a side that had won six of its past seven European away games. The old "Spursy" tag has faded in recent years, but under Antonio Conte, it doesn't apply, and we saw proof of that against Eintracht Frankfurt.

"We used the first game [against Frankfurt] to improve and understand how to hurt them. "But an important win for us. Instead, until the end we suffered. Spurs' first home game of October got off to a bad start as Frankfurt took a 14th-minute lead after Kamada punished Eric Dier's mistake. "When we missed the penalty honestly, I was a bit scared, because I thought everything can happen," Conte said afterwards. "And in the next game against Sporting Lisbon we have to try to get three points to go through to the next round.

Tottenham Hotspur legend Graham Roberts has no doubt that Harry Kane will become Spurs' record goalscorer before the World Cup.

“Then he will break England scoring record at World Cup then on to Prem scoring record! The Tottenham legend is of the opinion that after he becomes Tottenham’s top goalscorer, Kane will break similar records for England at the World Cup and for Spurs in the Premier League overall. Roberts certainly thinks Kane can break the record before the World Cup begins and then he thinks certain other records should also be within the striker’s reach.

The Toffees have the best defensive record in the Premier League, but one of their defenders has suffered an injury setback.

The striker is still undergoing a managed training programme, but is set to be available to face Spurs. Mina was set to make his return against Tottenham, but the Colombian has suffered a setback. Sunday's defeat against Manchester United was only the second time this season they've conceded two goals in a game. However, there is an injury boost further up the pitch for the Toffees. “Yerry has had a little bit of a setback this week and so won’t be available,” said Lampard, No team in the

Spurs have scored 18 goals in six home matches this season but looked disjointed in attack at times. Son Heung-min is not bothered about what critics are saying ...

I don’t really focus on any other team and what they are thinking about our team because I am only focused on our team and what we can do better.” We want to as a group always be better but the criticism doesn’t really bother us to be honest because we only focus on ourselves.” “The way we understand (each other), I think this is almost now natural so I just do my best, my job on the field. “I think the criticism is because the expectation is high so I am looking at it that way. It is not only about confidence. But I think looking that way is good.

Spurs will look to make it a third-straight victory in all competitions against Everton on Saturday.

It is understood that Spurs will invite pressure and look to take advantage on the counter, but Everton do not mind doing that either at times. Tell us your thoughts on the player and what he has provided to Everton in his short time at the club. Seamus Coleman will have his hands full at times but everyone on this side tracks back and contributes, so I expect to see that once again. Young players like Ellis Simms, Lewis Dobbin and many others do get supporters excited to be sure, but it will become greater when they feature for the first team instead of on loan with other sides. Tottenham represents different challenges than United, and the Blues will have to keep an eye out for the counter when it comes. On top of this, Nathan Patterson has had a good start to the season. While they have been a potent combination for this team this season, getting the likes of Ben Godfrey and Yerry Mina back from injuries will allow for each player to more effectively impact the side alongside either Coady or Tarkowski, while the other rests during the more hectic parts of the campaign. As Spurs turn their attention back to the Premier League, they will once again be at home against a team to which they are superior. Pundits were not as kind universally, but a few saw that the Blues had more to offer than they had shown last year. Ultimately, they were able to win the match while also being able to take out some of their bigger-named players to conserve their fitness levels ahead of Saturday’s match against Everton. But a goal came from nothing off a corner kick and Spurs came awfully close to conceding a back-breaking, tying goal in the final minutes. In the past three games, Spurs have started to become a bit more positive in their approach, perhaps due to Antonio Conte utilizing different tactics as well as new players being brought into the fold.
