Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp described his club's progress as an "impossible dream" after they secured their place in the Champions League quarter-finals.
Spurs drew 0-0 with Serie A leaders AC Milan at home on Wednesday to seal a 1-0 aggregate win and last-eight place.
"This is an impossible dream that we have achieved so far," said Redknapp.
"Two years ago if you would have said that we would have made it to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, I would have thought you were crazy."
Tottenham had finished top of a group including holders Inter Milan, Werder Bremen and FC Twente to reach the knock-out stages.
And Redknapp was full of praise for his players after they knocked out a side that has won Europe's premier club competition seven times.
"It's our first year in the club's history we have ever made Champions League football, so that was a fantastic achievement to have won our group and to do what we have done against AC Milan," said the 64-year-old.
