Tottenham striker Harry Kane says Everton made them work for their 2-0 win on Saturday.
Kane struck for the three points.
He later said: "We had to be patient. The spaces opened up as they got tired; thankfully we kept knocking on the door and got a couple of chances. It was a really good win."
On his battle with England team-mate Jordan Pickford, he added: "He made a couple of good saves and I snuck the penalty past him. Happy to get on the scoresheet again; it has been a tough week with loads of games. We've got to recover well and get ready for Wednesday.
"Whenever you miss a penalty the next one is the most important one.
"I've practiced so many against Jordan and I feel like I'm coming up againat a lot of English keepers this season. It was nice to get that one, it was really important."
