Modric: Tottenham proved ourselves equal of Man Utd

Luka Modric feels Tottenham have proved they're the equal of Manchester United.

Spurs failed to breakdown United's ten-man defence on Sunday.

But when asked if the midfielder felt the match proved the team are on the same level as United, Modric said: "Yes, I think so. Even though we haven't beaten them for 10 years, we showed that they are not better than us.

"It's a shame we didn't win but a draw is a good result. We said before the match that we wanted to win this game to close the gap in the table between them and us and we didn't make it.

"But there are still a lot of games between now and the end of the season and we need to try everything.

"I think we are still in the title race. In the last 14 games we have had only one defeat. That's excellent for us and we need to keep going. Everything is possible."
