After coming through the tie with Young Boys last night, Tottenham can now look ahead to competing in the Champions League for the first time.
A Peter Crouch hat-trick helped Spurs to a 4-0 victory against the Swiss side, meaning they won the tie 6-3 on aggregate. There will now be at least three more European nights at White Hart Lane this season and this is exciting for everyone concerned.
Just how competitive can Spurs do in the ultimate club competition though? Well, Harry Redknapp believes that his side will be a match for anybody they come up against.
The Tottenham boss said: "We'll take on anybody now. We'll give anyone a good game here. We are a good side with good players and it will be a great experience for us."
The former Portsmouth man is certainly right about one thing. Not many teams will enjoy coming to White Hart Lane on a European night. The place will be rocking and you would back Spurs to beat almost anyone if they are on form.
The problem might come on the road. They showed they are vulnerable on the road against Young Boys last week and you have to question how many points they could pick up away from home. You can follow their campaign with Bets Player.
Redknapp isn't worrying about this at the moment though and he will always back his team to succeed. They have, after all, got an excellent squad full of extremely talented players.
The draw for the group stages of the Champions League takes place later today, so perhaps more assessment on Spurs chances can be made then.
