Coach "Spurs" Mauricio Pochettino commented on the draw of his team in a fight with Brighton & Hove.

In the match of the 35th round of the Premier League, Tottenham on the road played 1: 1 with Brighton, losing important points in the fight for getting into the Champions League.

After the match, many accused Mauricio Pochettino that he rashly left on the bench a few main players of the team. The coach himself believes that the rotation did not cause the failure of the "spurs".

"We thought about giving the team a certain freshness after a psychologically and physically difficult match with Manchester City".

"I released a good enough composition in order to win, because the rotation has nothing to do with it".

"Each of our players performed their role magnificently, but we must pay tribute to Brighton, who turned out to be a very difficult opponent," Pochettino quotes Sky Sports.

At the moment, the "choppers" have 68 points on the account, 8 points ahead of the fifth-placed Chelsea, who has left the game in reserve.
