Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Harry Winks has revealed he felt his team were the better side in the Champions League final, but insists the squad should be proud of what they achieved in Europe.
After a dramatic semi-final victory over Ajax, Spurs fell 2-0 to Liverpool in the final in an incredibly tense affair. They had chances to score, but could not find a way through Liverpool's resolute defence.
Spoke with @HarryWinks post match, gutted for him. Was absolutely quality tonight.

Speaking after the game, Winks confessed that he felt Spurs did enough to win the game, although reaching the final was a huge accomplishment in itself.
He said: "
"Credit to Liverpool, they were really good today. They played really well defensively, but I thought we were the better side. On another day, we win the game, but that's football."
So proud of everyone involved with the club last night. Always a dream of mine to play in the Champions League final...however It wasn’t our night, but we’ve shown just how far we’ve come and we will continue to build on that next season! Thank you for all your support #COYS
