Fans on Twitter praise Aurier after Spurs victory

Tottenham are in the quarter-finals of the Champions League after seeing off Borussia Dortmund.

Harry Kane’s goal gave Spurs a 1-0 victory in Germany and a 4-0 win on aggregate on a brilliant night for Mauricio Pochettino’s men.

And while fans are used to Kane being a hero, the performance of Serge Aurier at right-back went some way to answering the right-back’s critics.

Aurier was defensively solid – although his apparent inability to take throw-ins remains a bizarre feature of his game – and many fans on Twitter were delighted with his performance.

Some feel he would be a better option than the out of form Kieran Trippier, who was rested for the game.
