"It was a flawless performance and I am happy for the victory for our fans", said Pochettino. It's so special. You can see the history, smell the history.
Manchester United have confirmed their starting eleven and substitutes to take on Tottenham Hotspur in the final ever game at White Hart Lane.
"We need to feel that Wembley is our home and we need to find a balance between White Hart Lane and there". It was Spurs' 24th win of the season and the last ever win at White Hart Lane. We are not going to say that matches are not important matches.
The Lane has been graced by such Spurs greats as Jimmy Greaves, Steve Perryman and Glenn Hoddle and it was fitting that Kane, emblem of their exciting current side, should be their final goal-scorer there.
Defeat confirmed that United now can not finish in the top four and must instead hope for victory against Ajax in the Europa League final next week if they are to secure a Champions League berth for next season.
White Hart Lane: The Tottenham managers with the best win ratios there
We'll have confirmed team news for you at around 3:30PM GMT but before that, stay with us as the build up to the game continues. United kept looking for an equalizer, and almost got it in extra time as Marcus Rashford put a counterattack goal just wide.
The pair, who failed to convince against last weekend at the Emirates, were handed another chance to impress at White Hart Lane, with Daley Blind and Eric Bailly moving out wide. There was nothing to regret, I am very happy with the performance of the players. I don't believe it's the right moment to play them.
Mauricio Pochettino will be hoping that Tottenham can maintain their unbeaten run at home in the league intact on Sunday.
Harry Winks and Erik Lamela are also not likely to feature in any capacity in the final game at White Hart Lane.
But obviously, like we did against Arsenal, we didn't threw the match away, we played, we tried to win, we had our chances and that's what we're gonna do.
They took Manchester United to pieces and should have won by far more than this 2-1 margin, thanks to goals from Victor Wanyama and Harry Kane, one at the start of each half. Nevertheless, the "spurs" remain the best home team of the Premier League, where for 18 games, earned 50 points, without losing a single match. "But we fight for titles and probably other clubs finishing in the top four, probably they would like to be in our position to try to fight for a title". Kane hoped the progression of improvement from 2016 to this year will continue next season, when Spurs play their home games 12 miles to the west at Wembley.
