Pedro Porro talks about his goal celebration in Tottenham vs Nottingham Forest game

Pedro Porro was on target as Tottenham Hotspur got better of Nottingham Forest in North London last night.

Ange Postecoglou & Co boosted their chances of qualifying for the Champions League in the upcoming campaign with a 3-1 home win over relegation-battling Nottingham Forest on Sunday to move into fourth in the Premier League.

Spurs had a moment of fragility yet again as Chris Wood cancelled out Murillo’s own goal in the first thirty minutes. From there, it was all Ange’s army as the Lilywhites got better of the visitors with two second-half goals from Micky van de Ven and Pedro Porro. While Nuno’s side had a few chances, they just drew some straight-forward saves for Vicario. 

Tottenham’s win against Forest puts them in the driving seat for the traditional top-four finish as the North Londoners go level with Aston Villa on 60 points but with a game in hand.

While Spurs came through with another magnificent performance, Pedro Porro enjoyed yet another spectacular outing. He won all his tackles and recorded six recoveries in the game while making a couple of clearances. Although Porro’s performance was more than just defensive duties, he completed passes with 88% accuracy and scored the all-important third to ensure some cushion of three points for Spurs.

Porro had an interesting celebration for the goal, and now we know the reason behind it. The 24-year-old’s post on Instagram acknowledged that his celebration was dedicated to his mother, who celebrated her birthday yesterday. The post was captioned, “A special goal for a the most special woman !! Happy birthday from North London Mum !!! 🥳😁❤️ #COYS🤍VAMOSSSSSSSSSSSSSS @spursofficial.”
