Antonio Conte insists he doesn't want Tottenham Hotspur to prioritise counter-attacking football.

Heung-min Son scored a splendid goal on the break in Thursday's 2-0 win over Brentford.

But Conte believes his team must learn to beat teams who defend high and on the low block.

"I think that we have to be good in both situations," Conte told reporters, via football.london.

"When we have space, in this case, I think this team is very good because in front we have players with quality but at the same time, fast players. Very good at exploiting the space.

"At the other end, we have to try to improve when we don't find the space to move the ball better, to find the right solution, because during the training session, we'll have a session to find the right solution in both situations.

"With space and without space, this team has the characteristics to exploit this situation. Without space, we have to improve, but for the second goal our players showed great quality and Harry made a fantastic play to send Sergio and then Sergio made a fantastic ball for Son."
