"To see all the fans jumping up and down and singing my name – I still can't believe it. I'm getting goosebumps right now. I'm delighted.

"Since I came to Tottenham I have been dreaming about that, but it was worth the wait because to win 2-1 at Fulham in a derby and to score a goal like that makes me so happy and proud."
