Tottenham assistant manager Cristian Stellini played down the absence of Richarlison for their FA Cup win at Preston.

Harry Kane was also missing for the 3-0 triumph.

Stellini said of Richarlison: "He has a small problem in the last few days. We tried to recover him but it was not a good idea to recover him. We had just Harry Kane sick and so it was not a good idea to risk him. We will find Richarlison next week.

Asked if it was his hamstring, Stellini added: "No, no, no, it was a different injury.

"He recovered well, he has a small problem in his adductor but nothing special."
