Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson was delighted after victory at Tottenham.

Wilson scored in the 2-1 win on Sunday.

He later said: "I had every right to go for the ball. The keeper was challenging, I was challenging. I think sometimes keepers get too much love [from referees]. But he chested it and dived into me really, and I've carried on and put it in.

"VAR sometimes gets in the way of things, it can be annoying. The goal gets checked, there's uncertainty then you're celebrating again. It takes a bit of that element away but it's about the team. We're glad to get the three points.

"We're on a good run and long may it continue. At the end of the season we'll evaluate where we are in the league."

On his England World Cup hopes, Wilson added: "I'm just focused on my performances - game in, game out; little by little; adding goals and all-round performances. Hopefully that will catch the eye of the England manager. I did rehab from injury in Qatar a few years ago. They were building the stadiums [for the World Cup] and I did say I'd come back. It's my dream to play at the World Cup."
