Mauricio Pochettino: 'It was important to rest Harry Kane'

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that he was pleased to be able to rest Harry Kane for the FA Cup fourth round replay with Newport County.

"Yes, it's important to have all the players fresh," the Spurs boss told reporters. "Of course with him, in a very short period, he suffered two illnesses and it's important to care about him. He was fantastic with plenty of energy and then he got a cold, and dropped his energy. "For me yesterday it was so important to keep him away from the game to provide better energy for the next few games."
