The Viola fought back from a goal down through Federico Bernardeschi and Sousa even believes his team deserved to win the match following their late resurgence.
“Tottenham are a great team and we know that when we play certain players in certain positions it can be hard to apply pressure,” Sousa told Sky Sport Italia after the match.
“It was a game of hight intensity and quality. In the end we did not win when we deserved to
“We have shown once again that we want to play with the best.
“English teams have great intensity and we we realised that we can compete at this level and this makes me proud to coach these guys.
“We’ll see how we play in the second leg in order to make this city and country proud.
“It’s important to give off a certain image of our style of football, this is something that we hold dear.”
