Harry Redknapp: "We were lucky"

Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp believes that his side are lucky to still be in the FA Cup after their 1-0 win over Watford at Vicarage Road.

Rafael van der Vaart's first-half goal was enough to see off a valiant display from the Championship side.

"They say it's better to be lucky than good and tonight we were lucky," Redknapp told ESPN. "That was not the Tottenham side I see every week, we were poor.

"We didn't play well tonight. Watford were fantastic. They were top class."

Spurs next host Wigan Athletic in the Premier League on Tuesday.
