"[With] the three goals, hopefully we've done enough but it's always going to be difficult going there with their home fans - they're still a top side," Defoe observed to ITV after the game.

"It's going to be difficult but, saying that, the way we played tonight, if we do that over there then we shouldn't have any problems."

Gareth Bale, who grabbed his 10th goal in eight games with his header to open the scoring, hailed a fine showing from his side.

"We played well. I thought we set the tempo from the first whistle and made sure we made it difficult for them," the in-form winger stated.

"I think it was a great performance and, I think, a worthy result to be honest."
