Post-match, Saka said: I'm delighted. It was worth everything we put in those last 20 minutes, we're happy to leave here with three points.

It was a rollercoaster, but I'm happy. I went over to the bench (after the disallowed goal) and they told me it was offside so I was pretty calm and I wasn't really worried about the checks. After that we managed to score one and then another, we were 3-0 up and we went into half-time pretty comfortable.

Big credit to all the defenders, they've been amazing all season. We've all seen that and they're getting their credit, they showed that again today, they were so solid.

When the atmosphere is against you and Spurs are piling on the pressure, they were so calm. David (Raya) as well made a mistake but he was so calm after, so credit to him. I'm so proud of the boys."
