Jermain Defoe becomes Tottenham Hotspur's top scorer in Europe

Defoe breaks Spurs European record

Jermain Defoe has become Tottenham Hotspur's all-time top goalscorer in European competitions after scoring in their Europa League tie with Sheriff Tiraspol.

The England international broke Martin Chivers's 39-year record of 22 goals for the club with a second-half penalty.

Despite not being a regular starter in the Premier League this season, Defoe leads the club's scoring charts and tonight took his season tally to seven goals.
