Eric Dier celebrated his England recall in the best way possible with a brilliant header in Tottenham's 6-2 win over Leicester City on Saturday evening. Having fallen behind early on to Youri Tielemans' retaken penalty, Dier put Spurs in front from Ivan Perisic's corner not long after Harry Kane had restored parity.
It was in fact the 28-year-old's second goal of the campaign having scored in the opening day win over Southampton, with his previous strike coming all the way back in May 2019 in the 2-2 draw with Everton on the final day of the campaign. With Antonio Conte previously admitting that he wants more goals from his player due to his presence in the box, it was also one of Dier's aims to get himself on the scoresheet more often.
"One of my objectives is to score more goals and I think it's something I wanted to do more, my manager wanted me to do more," he admitted. "It's something I have been focusing on so I am very happy to have two now and hopefully get some more."
