Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino admitted he was "disappointed" at only drawing 2-2 with rivals Arsenal at White Hart Lane.

After going a goal down, the home side fought back against the 10 men of the visitors, scoring two goals in two minutes to take the lead with just under half an hour remaining. However, Alexis Sanchez squeezed a shot past Hugo Lloris to equalise and Arsenal managed to hold on for a draw.

Spurs would have gone top of the Premier League with a victory but will instead see leaders Leicester City extend their lead to five points should they beat Watford this evening.

"In the first half we conceded a goal when we fully deserved to score, and because we managed the game from the beginning, but sometimes it's difficult," Pochettino said.

"At 2-1 for us, I'm disappointed at the final whistle.

"But the last action, (the chance) for Ramsey at the end, we need to be pleased and happy because we keep the three-point (gap) to Arsenal and I think if you analyse the game we played much better than them."
