Tottenham striker Heung-Min Son proud of spectacular Leicester goal

Tottenham striker Heung-Min Son is proud of his stunning goal against Leicester City.

The South Korea star fashioned a backheel finish from Kieran Trippier to grab a 2-1 win at Vicarage Road.

"It's a very good memory," Son told the Spurs website. “It was a very difficult game and we were all very happy to win. Yes, the goal was a little bit lucky because it went through the legs of Gomes but it doesn't really matter how we scored, we wanted to win that game, it was very important and to do it like that was special.

“The celebrations were crazy! It was a very good time. Sometimes when I'm going to sleep I'm still thinking about this moment! We have great fans and it was great to make them feel happy. We won for them because they are always there with us."
