Moussa Sissoko was at it again in our 1-0 win over Inter Milan in the Champions League. The Frenchman didn’t score a goal but his run late in the game allowed Christian Eriksen to score the all-important winner against the Italians.
The win kept Tottenham with more than a chance of making it into the knockout round of the competition. We just have to defeat Barcelona at the Nou Camp on the final match day.
While we have the North London derby to concentrate at the weekend, Sissoko was asked about his role in the winner.
The 29-year-old certainly was pleased with the performance and praised the team for grinding out the win.

The former Newcastle United man has truly found his feet for Spurs this season, and he seems to be getting better with each game.
It will be interesting to see if the Frenchman starts against Arsenal at the weekend. A number of Tottenham fans were impressed again by the midfielder’s performance, and here are some of their reactions on Twitter.
Hats off to you @MoussaSissoko you’ve made the fans that were digging you out (me included) eat a bit of humble pie over the last few games. Now go bang the winner in on Sunday

Gareth Bale had an awful first two years at Spurs and look what a player he turned out to be. Hopefully the same happens with Moussa COYS
