Mauricio Pochettino believes Tottenham's 1-1 draw with Liverpool represents 'two missed points' in the Premier League title race.
Spurs travelled to Anfield with a chance to cut Leicester's lead to just two points but found themselves staring down the barrel of defeat after Philippe Coutinho's opener.
Harry Kane levelled the scores courtesy of his 22nd goal of the season but failure to find a way past Jurgen Klopp's side means the north Londoners could be seven points adrift of the summit by the end of the weekend.
Leicester host Southampton tomorrow and victory would see them strengthen their grip on first place, but Pochettino is determined to remain upbeat about his side's title chances, despite tonight's setback.

“The first half was equal but we played well. The feeling after the game is that we missed two points. I am happy and very pleased with the performance," insisted the Argentine.
“In the second half we were better, we had chances. Liverpool had chances too but I am happy. Today was a hard game.
“Leicester have a tough game against Southampton but we need to believe.
"Leicester deserve to be in the place they are but in football anything can happen. We have to fight until the end of the season.”
Spurs host Manchester United next weekend and can ill-afford to drop many more points during the run-in if they are to lift their first in 55 years.
