Dominic Solanke has claimed our Goal of the Month award for February after his stunning scorpion kick against Manchester City.
Making just his second league start of the season, Dom was back with a bang as he scored two second-half goals, with the second being that incredible scorpion kick.
As we sensed an opportunity, Conor Gallagher was quickest to react and claim the ball back on the right-hand side before springing forward and to the byline. There, he clipped the ball back into the back where our number 19 was bursting into the box.
The ball was slightly behind the striker, but he managed to hook his right leg back and flick the ball over his head and that of goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma and into the back of the net.
And in a poll on tottenhamhotspur.com and the Spurs Official App, he took the majority of the votes, edging out Rio Kyerematen and his thumping effort against Norwich City Under-21s.
