It was a hard fought victory for the League One side, as they took the game against the Premier League opponents to extra time before striker Bradley Dack scored the match victor in the 102 minute to score a famous victory and set up a tie against Spurs.

A prolonged absence for Kane could also hit England, who have a World Cup qualifier against Scotland at Wembley on November 11.

“We will assess Mousa Dembele and Eric Dier today and see what happens”.

“There are different rumours, we can not guess whether it’s eight, ten, four, one [weeks]”.

“Of course we have a lot of players involved (at the Euros) at Tottenham, but it’s the same case at some other teams”.

“But it was important to get three points in a very hard game”.

“Tottenham are a top-quality side, that is why they finished where they did last season”.

“It was a good result”, Pochettino said. “We had many chances”, he told BBC Match of the Day.

“I was disappointed with him, but I was also disappointed with the referee, because it was a free kick on the edge of the box and he doesn’t give it, and Adnan shouldn’t have spoke back to the referee”, he said. He’s not a natural striker, but Spurs have added depth in the midfield so they can handle his absence there and Son has shown he can play striker before, especially with South Korea.

“Marcus is an exciting talent”, said Pochettino.

“For him last season was tough for him”.

“I think we got improvements, we kept at it”. He is a quiet person, nice person and then you need to fight for your place.

“When he came back from the Olympics his idea was to leave, to go to Germany”.

With important Premier League, Champions League and England commitments in the next few weeks, the timing couldn’t really be much worse, for player, club or country. In his mind, he would like to move but in the end he accepted the decision to stay and fight for his position. “Yes, but you know it is only the truth”, Lloris said.

“I’d like to be straight. In the changing room after the game, it was a bit sad and we were very disappointed”. I got word of something very late.
