Ronald Koeman hails his Southampton side after Tottenham Hotspur draw

Southampton manager Ronald Koeman has praised his side for their performance in their 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur today.

The Saints led twice through goals from Graziano Pelle, but Spurs came away with a point courtesy of a Nacer Chadli strike.

Koeman told BBC Sport: "I am a little bit disappointed only to draw, but it was a very good performance in a fantastic football game between two attacking teams.

"I enjoyed it very much and I am proud of my side. We created a little bit more than them and played at a good level, but it is difficult to beat Tottenham."

Southampton sit one point behind Spurs in seventh place in the Premier League table.
