The German scored his first Premier League goal as Spurs beat Rene Meulensteen's side 2-1 at Craven Cottage, and the attacking midfielder expressed his delight with the strike.

He told the club's official website: "I'm over the moon like every footballer says, but scoring a goal in a London derby in the Premier League and the fact that it was the winning goal – my pulse was racing!

"To see all the fans jumping up and down and singing my name – I still can't believe it. I'm getting goosebumps right now. I'm delighted.

"Since I came to Tottenham I have been dreaming about that, but it was worth the wait because to win 2-1 at Fulham in a derby and to score a goal like that makes me so happy and proud."
