Tottenham striker Werner delighted to be off the mark

Tottenham striker Timo Werner is delighted to be off the mark.

Werner scored in Spurs' victory over Crystal Palace on Saturday.

He said: "Absolutely, especially after the first half when I missed the big chance.

"It was important for me and the team that I scored this goal and we came back into the game.

"They stood behind me at half-time and said I should keep going. That is what I tried. It always feels good that you have a group that says nothing about it. They were supportive. It helps me and the whole team."
