Onuoha confused over Man City goal celebration

Nedum Onuoha admits he didn't know what to do after heading home Manchester City's winner against Tottenham on Sunday.

"I'm happy obviously, but I think I'm happier with the three points," the defender told City's website. "A lot of people have been on our backs, so it's nice to be able to put that behind us now."

And describing the feeling of heading what proved to be the winning goal, the 21-year-old added: "It was quite strange because obviously it's gone in, but it didn't feel right, because it's not something I've done at the Stadium before.

"When I got to the halfway line I turned around and thought maybe he's disallowed it or something. Maybe it'll come second nature to me one day.

"I had no particular celebration, I was just blowing kisses for the family, that's all I needed to do."
