'For the first time it feels really special' - Pochettino revels in Tottenham progress

Lucas Moura's late goal at the Camp Nou delivered the finest achievement in four-and-a-half years in north London for the Spurs boss

Mauricio Pochettino has described Tottenham's passage to the last-16 of this season's Champions League as the most "special" moment of his tenure at the club.

Lucas Moura's late equaliser secured a 1-1 draw with Barcelona at the Camp Nou, a result which coupled with Inter and PSV's stalemate was enough to secure passage from Group B.

Since arriving in north London in 2014, Pochettino had taken Tottenham to second in the Premier League, the FA Cup semi-finals in the last two campaigns and the Carabao Cup final.
