100, 100, 1000 - The multi-milestone hitting Defoe goal

A modern-day great for the Club, Jermain enjoyed a phenomenal time in Lilywhite, scoring 143 goals in 363 games. It was so good in fact that he came back for a second spell in 2009 having previously worn our storied shirt between 2004 and 2008.

And it was in that second stint where he really cemented his status as an icon for the Club, continuing to find the back of the net for fun as he helped us into the UEFA Champions League for the first time in 2010 before going on to break the late Martin Chivers' European goalscoring record in 2013 - a tally of 23 goals which has only been bettered since by Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son.

It was also in that second spell where one of the 143 goals he scored for us made history for both him and the Club as we faced West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League on 23 April, 2011.

Beginning with the goal - it was some strike. He was a striker renowned for his ability to be reactive in the box and find the target in the most unlikely of situations, but usually in the box. This goal did not meet those guidelines.

The move for the goal had started in our backline with it being worked out to the Rafael van der Vaart, who played a thunderous pass 30-odd yards into Defoe, who had in turn dropped back to the middle of the opposition half.

In somewhat unchartered waters for the England international, he took a couple of chances to set himself before cutting onto his left and firing into the bottom corner of the net from 25 yards out.

But, the goal was so much more significant than it just being a rather decent strike as it also put the forward in the history books.

On a personal note, incredibly the goal was both his 100th for the Club and his 100th in the Premier League. Meanwhile, quite remarkably, it was simultaneously our 1000th goal in the Premier League since the competition was founded in 1992.

However, while it was a incredible strike and made so much history, it was almost been consigned to history given our result in the game. On the hunt for Champions league football, we really needed a win that afternoon at White Hart Lane to keep tabs on Manchester City who occupied fourth place at the time

Defoe's solo effort had given us a 2-1 lead in the game with 25 minutes still to play but a late Simon Cox leveller for the Baggies saw us drop points. City went on to win against Blackburn the following Monday to move four points clear of us with five games to play.
