Tottenham fullback Emerson Royal is still floating after his 5-star performance against West Ham.
Not only did he help Spurs to a 2-0 win over West Ham with a fine opener, but he also took the moment to dedicate his goal to his pregnant girlfriend, who was watching on from the stands.
It was a special night for me. It was really important to have my girlfriend in the crowd," said the 24-year-old. With the news of our child coming, it is more than special for me.
We've been together for a while now, three years in total, and we're starting a new chapter in our lives together. I do everything for them."\
I am really happy right now," he said. The truth is, I've been hoping to score for a little while now and it happened, I've been working really hard.
Ben (Davies) gave the assist and I'm very happy for that! A pass from a wing back and a goal from another, it was wonderful. It was a very special night for me.
We wanted to give back to our fans and to get out of a difficult situation with a win - we've done that in a fantastic way."
