Burnley boss Vincent Kompany was upbeat after their FA Cup defeat at Tottenham.

A stunning goal from Pedro Porro earned Tottenham their 1-0 win.

Afterwards, Kompany said: "I've never known the mood of the camp to be joyful after a defeat but... We are disappointed with the result of course but I said to the lads about key moments. I think we have earned the right to be in those games, to compete in those type of games.

"At the start of the season the gap was too big, but recently we are competing. What we need to do now it to bring that final bit. If you concede a goal like we did today, sometimes you have to shake hands and say: 'A top goal and that's it.' We've got to take our chances.

"You play against a top team like we did and they have chances as well, so it is always also credit to them."

On the goal conceded, he said: "I look back at it and think it was 0-0, and we are trying to go for the win. There was acres of space but we were having one of our vest players on the ball receive that pass. Then what follows, you know how can you expect that?

"For me the goal starts with the set piece. We are normally so aggressive on second balls but for this one we took a step back, then the counter came, then the turn over and the goal later on.

"Those are the moments that in the Premier League you get punished. Our players are working very hard every day to get to the level, to develop. Such a good group to work with and we keep going."

He added: "If you watch the beginning of the season you would be surprised because it was an improvement. But our last 12 games that is how it has looked. Some games we create more chances, even clearer chances.

"We'll just have to keep working. The training ground is a beautiful place to get things to improve and our focus is there. We are looking forward to the next game."
