Tottenham Hotspur’s success in claiming a top-four Premier League finish on Wednesday to guarantee Champions League football next season has been a “massive achievement”, manager Mauricio Pochettino said
Spurs will have played “38 away games” by the end of the campaign.
“It was a real quality season for the group to achieve the top four — a massive achievement,” he said after England striker Harry Kane’s second-half goal secured the three points that took Spurs up to third and clear of Chelsea in fifth.
Next season Spurs will again cross swords with the elite of European football having been unfortunate to exit the Champions League in the last 16 to Juventus after finishing above Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund in the group stage.
