Parker: We got the goal we deserved

Scott Parker felt that Tottenham fully deserved our last-gasp equaliser against Manchester United.

Clint Dempsey bundled the ball home after some good work by Aaron Lennon to give us a point in the 1-1 draw at a snowy White Hart Lane. A Robin van Persie header gave United the lead in the first half.

We put a lot of pressure on them in the second half and I think we got the goal we deserved,” Parker told Sky Sports 1.

“I was pleased to be back out there, its been a long while. It was a tough game but I enjoyed it and hope I can stay fit now.

“We have shown real resilience. We had a good first half of the season and need to push on. Our objective is fourth (in the league) but if we can improve on that, then so be it.”
