Pochettino says Spurs are now respected in Europe

Mauricio Pochettino believes his “brave” Tottenham side are ready to take another major step in Europe.

Spurs host Juventus tonight in the second leg of their round-of-16 tie at Wembley.

The north Londoners have every chance of knocking out the Italian champions - finalists in two of the last three seasons - after coming back from two goals down to draw 2-2 in the first leg in Turin.
