Tottenham striker Harry Kane insists there's no grudge against Marseille fans after last night's Champions League win.

Kane said he was proud of the players for coming through a test of character and hopes the win can be a springboard for their final three matches before the break for the Qatar World Cup.

“We expected it — we were told the fireworks might happen," he told the London Evening Standard. “I woke up on the first lot but the second lot I was fast asleep thankfully!

“Their fans were incredible, we knew the atmosphere would be special and that was with one of the stands closed as well. Credit to them, they're doing everything to make sure their team wins. I'm so proud of the boys, coming to a really tough place, the atmosphere was really hostile and we had to find something amongst ourselves, players and staff, and we managed to do that.

“It was really important just before the World Cup. If we'd have gone out, then it would have been a real sting because you know you're coming back from the World Cup and playing Europa League and it's just not the same feeling. So that was really vital.

“We've got three games before the World Cup and hopefully we can use tonight to finish strongly and if we can be there or thereabouts in the Premier League and get through in the Carabao Cup, it'll be a really good start to the season."
