We wanted to go far, we're all disappointed but it's something we'll have to deal with, dust ourselves down and get ready for the weekend [against Chelsea]. "Losing two of our home games... in this competition it's got to be a fortress.Although we're at Wembley it's no excuse, we've got to make it difficult and use it to our advantage and we didn't. "It's always difficult away from home in the Champions League, the home games is where we should have been better." Spurs wasted a gilt-edged opportunity in the sixth minute when Son Heung-min went through one-on-one but was denied by Danijel Subasic, but Kane said the South Korean could not be blamed for a listless defeat. "It was a big chance, Sonny knows that, nine times out of 10 he'd put that away but we can't use that as an excuse, we just weren't good enough," he said.</blockquote>
