Modric admits Chelsea defeat hit Spurs players hard

Tottenham midfielder Luka Modric admits the dressing room was hit hard by defeat at Chelsea.

The 2-1 defeat hit the players hard - summed-up by Modric.

"I don't think we deserved to lose the game," he told the club's website. "When you look at the whole game, especially the first half, we were the much better team.

"The first goal really hurt us. It's not a goal. The second goal is offside as well. It's so disappointing to lose that way.

"If we were still 1-0 up (at half-time) we would have approached the second half differently. But what can we do?

"All we can do is pick ourselves up and try to win the next match, that's it."
