(Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino praised his side for digging deep against Chelsea in Sunday's 0-0 draw after their energy-sapping midweek Europa League trip to Azerbaijan began to tell in the second half.
Spurs, who set a club record with their 13th unbeaten Premier League game in a row, started brightly against their London rivals but faded after half-time as the effects of their 12-hour round trip to face Qarabag on Thursday took its toll.
