Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier: Red Star stadium walk something unique

Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier was delighted with their 4-0 win at Champions League opponents Red Star Belgrade.

Giovani Lo Celso, Heung-min Son (2) and Christian Eriksen were the Spurs goalscorers.

Dier remarked afterwards: "It's a huge positive. We wanted to keep a clean sheet and that is the aim for the defence. The manager emphasised how difficult it was going to be here with the results over the years, so we knew it was going to be tough."

On the stadium walk, he added: "It is a strange one and it's something we are not used to. It's a unique walk and it's something I think you have to enjoy. It was a great atmosphere to come and play in and that is what the Champions League is about.

"I'm very happy to have got the chance to play. Obviously, we have a very good squad so it's always difficult, but any chance you get you have to take it. Hopefully I did that."
