Hugo Lloris said Tottenham paid the price for allowing Cristiano Ronaldo too much freedom in Manchester United's thrilling 3-2 win on Saturday.
Tottenham's top-four hopes were dented by Ronaldo's hat-trick, despite Antonio Conte's side twice coming from behind to level at Old Trafford.
Spurs goalkeeper and captain Lloris said: “We know at this level it’s all about details. Ronaldo also helped a lot to get United the result.
