Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits his players are "sad" after their 1-1 draw with Tottenham.
The hosts needed Luis Diaz to level Heung-min Son's opener for Spurs.
Klopp said, "A difficult game, but I'm really happy with the performance of my boys against a top team that might play Champions League next season. They have world class strikers on the pitch set-up for counter-attacking. It makes life not easy, 1-0 down is difficult and we kept calm and forced the equaliser.
"Our mentality was incredible and the counter-pressing was a different level. But we faced an opponent set-up for counter-attacks with a full week to prepare, we accept that and it is a draw. We will keep going. We weren't tired. You are not as precise at the end of the game. They are down in the dressing room, it was intense. When you play top teams, you need luck in the decisive moments.
"I'm not happy, but not as sad as the players are right now and it is my job to explain why something happens like this. Harry Kane and Son Heung-min were completely rested, that is why it is so hard. That is why the quadruple is so unlikely; there is a reason nobody has done it in this country. We will keep going."
