Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp was delighted to see his side advance to the last eight of the Champions League last night.
Holding a 1-0 advantage over AC Milan from the first leg in Italy, Redknapp played last night’s match at White Hart Lane just right, not allowing the Italians a sniff as the game ended 0-0.
The result meant Spurs headed through to the quarter-finals in their first season in the Champions League, something that had Redknapp beaming with pride.
"This is an impossible dream we’ve achieved so far", said Redknapp.
"Two years ago if you’d said that we would have made it to the quarter-finals of the Champions League I would have thought you were crazy.
"We’ve beaten AC Milan over two legs with two clean sheets and won our group, which was the hardest of the lot."
Spurs will now look forward to continuing their European adventure, but should also have one eye on the Premier League where they are battling to retain the top four status they won last season.
