A Tottenham fan has given his account of Eric Dier's unbelievable actions after the FA Cup loss to Norwich on Wednesday.

Dier jumped into the crowd to confront a fan who was allegedly insulting his brother, with a video of the incident quickly going viral.

And 16-year-old Jay Ilori was there to witness the situation unfold.

He told the Press Association: "I was in the second row and we were clapping Dier and a few other players as they were walking off the pitch. Eric Dier seemed to be staring into the crowd as if he recognised someone in his family.

"He was staring for about 30 seconds while walking off the pitch then he started walking towards the fans where I was sitting. He jumped over and everybody was in shock so we made space for him which is when he started walking over the seats.

"At the time all I heard was the fans in front of me shouting his name trying to get his attention as he was the closest player to the seats. After he did start climbing the seats, the fan he was trying to get to was running away and shouting he's sorry and he didn't mean anything.

"He looked scared for his life and used hand gestures to apologise to Dier before he could get to him. Dier didn't say anything until he got near the fan when he started talking about something to do with his brother."
