League Cup semi-final 1st leg: Tottenham 1-0 Sheffield Utd

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino describes opponents Sheffield United as a "very good team" after a 1-0 win in the first leg of their League Cup semi-final at White Hart Lane.

The Argentine felt it was a "very hard" match in which the hosts found it "difficult to create chances" against the League One side.

Andros Townsend's late penalty gives Tottenham a 1-0 advantage to take into next Wednesday's second leg at Bramall Lane.
