Tottenham's Ivorian midfielder Didier Zokora wants to put defeat to Everton behind him and concentrate on reaching the semi-finals of the Carling Cup, the trophy they are defending.

"We needed to take the three points as far as our position in the table goes, but it was a difficult game and Everton played very well," he said.

"When they scored, the game changed, and to concede the way we did was frustrating because we lost our concentration at the free-kick.

"We shouldn't be conceding goals like this, and if we had communicated with each other a bit better, then we could have prevented it.

"But this is football and we have another game on Wednesday in the Carling Cup and a London derby with West Ham after that."
