It will have been deserved

"They have to understand that it was a cruel blow - it was against Tottenham too - but we have played against two unbelievably good sides and people would agree that had we got results against these two teams - it will have been deserved." (BBC Sport website.)

Is had we got results against these two teams - it will have been deserved a mixed conditional or should "would", instead of "will", be there?

It is not correct. As you suggest, "will" should be "would". The last dash is not necessary either.
