Huddlestone shrugs off Spurs scoring heroics

Tom Huddlestone played down his two-goal performance in Tottenham's 5-1 thumping of Fulham.

He told the Spurs website: "With my birthday coming up I had all my family at the game, so it was great to get a win and even better to score some goals.

"In any good team, you can't just rely on your strikers for goals. Midfielders and defenders from set-pieces have all got to chip in with their goals. If I can do that, it'll be good.

"The second goal was more luck than anything else, but the first was thanks to a great set-up by Berba and I managed to get it out of my feet and put it in the back of the net.

"Entertaining is a big part of it, but the most important thing is to get the wins at this moment in time."
