Afterwards, Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou said: "We were dominant enough, their keeper was outstanding today and we had enough chances.
"It's always difficult when you lose four matches in a row and it is only natural there will be a bit of anxiety and a bit of stress there.
"For the most part I think we handled the game well and we finished the game strong.
"It should have been a more comfortable victory but the most important thing is we won the game."
