Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou says victory at Crystal Palace on Friday night was well deserved.

Spurs held a 2-0 lead through an own goal and Heung-min Son effort before Jordan Ayew's injury-time goal.

Posetecoglou said: "I thought we handled it well. It's not an easy place to come to and the way they set up, they are disciplined defensively. I think we stayed patient and scored two good goals. [I'm] really pleased."

"I thought it went how the game would go and it would take time for us to open them up. I am happy that we stayed disciplined and stuck to the football we wanted to play.

"Every week is a different challenge. They key for us was to be disciplined, focused and persistent in our play and we did that. I think the spell between the first and second goal we were dominant and played some really good football and then still think the lads handled [the end of the match] well.

"We haven't faced that situation this year and there was a really clear-headedness about the team and there was no rushing and panic which is a good sign."

On the handball claims for Jordan Ayew's goal: "I am not going to talk about handball. I have no idea what is a handball."
