Tottenham attacker Lucas Moura: Our spirit can overturn Ajax lead

Tottenham attacker Lucas Moura insists their Champions League semifinal with Ajax isn't over.

Mauricio Pochettino's men need yet another monumental show of character to overturn a 1-0 Champions League semi-final deficit against the most impressive Ajax side of the last 20 years.

But Lucas says: “The spirit against City was amazing, unbelievable. We need to play like that in Amsterdam.

“We went to the Etihad and played a very good game against City. We were strong mentally. Now we need to do the same: Run, fight. I believe in my team-mates. Let's rest well now, prepare for the next game and believe always.

“It's still open, it's not finished. I think we can go there, we can do a good game and we can win."
