Christian Eriksen: 'Goal against Stoke City has caused arguments'

Eriksen: 'Stoke goal caused arguments'

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen has admitted that the subject of who scored his team's second goal in their 2-1 win at Stoke City last weekend has been hotly debated in the dressing room.

The Dane was credited with the decisive strike, although Harry Kane later claimed to have applied the final touch.

Eriksen, however, has hinted that he is happy to allow the England international to claim the strike.

"There are a lot of arguments going on around here," The Independent quotes Eriksen as saying.

"I think Harry, if he touched it, he touched it and it's his goal. How he celebrated, he had the feeling he touched the ball."

Tottenham have since confirmed that they will contact the Premier League to request that the goal is credited to Kane, who is currently trailing Liverpool's Mohamed Salah in the top goalscorers chart.
