Conte 'very pleased' with Tottenham performance in victory over Brighton

Antonio Conte was 'very pleased' with Tottenham Hotspur's win over Brighton on Wednesday.

Spurs restored their hopes of a top-four finish with a 2-0 victory at the AMEX.

Asked about the performance, Conte told reporters: "I am very pleased for a good performance and because we got three points. It is the final part of the season and it is vital to get three points. We want to stay very close to the top to see what will happen at the end of the season.

"In my opinion we are playing very well and improving a lot with the ball and also tonight we also showed solidity defensively.

"There were a lot of positive things but at the same time from tomorrow we start to think about Sunday against an opponent that is now our target.

"It is important for us to have a target. We show ambition and I think my players and team needs to have ambition. It is a difficult target to reach but we have to try."
