Harry admits to penalty doubts
Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp admitted after his side's Carling Cup Final defeat to Manchester United that he wasn't confident of his side winning the penalty shoot-out at Wembley.
After the match had ended goalless after 120 minutes of football, United scored all four of their penalties while Jamie O'Hara had his spot-kick saved by Ben Foster and David Bentley failed to hit the target with his effort.
"I have to be honest, we weren't that confident with our penalty-takers really and you looked over there and they had very confident penalty-takers," Redknapp admitted.
"There's injuries, there's fatigue – we've spent all our resources. If you're Middlesbrough you must be sitting at home and enjoying every minute of this.
"But I thought we were super. It was a great performance and it came down to a lottery in the end.
"They couldn't beat us in 90 minutes plus extra-time. We didn't deserve to lose and I thought we were fantastic."
