Tottenham defender Micky van de Ven, speaking to Amazon Prime after Spurs' 1-0 win against Villarreal: "I think it was a tough one, not an easy one. We didn't play well but it was an important one.
"We had a really good start and of course you want to build on that, but Villarreal are a really difficult team to play against. Every time on the counter attack, they keep the strikers forward, they're really dangerous.
"Of course you want to build on the 1-0 at the start of the game but at the end we got the three points and that's the most important."
On his foul late in the game which earned him a yellow card: "Of course, you never know what the referee is going to do in that moment. I think because I went for the ball it's not a red card. I haven't seen it back properly so I can't say what I think at the moment."
Tottenham midfielder Lucas Bergvall added: "It was really tough. Villarreal did a great performance but a 1-0 win at home is amazing.
"We talk a lot about 'clean sheet mentality' and they did not have a shot on target, so we did a really good job."
