Pochettino praises 'hero' Dier after West Ham winner

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Mauricio Pochettino paid tribute to unlikely debut hero Eric Dier after Tottenham ran out narrow winners over West Ham at Upton Park. A goalless draw seemed inevitable in the closing minutes of a match which saw both Kyle Naughton and James Collins sent off by referee Chris Foy, until Dier rounded Adrian to slot home an injury-time winner on his first Premier League appearance. And after the match Pochettino praised the contribution of the 20-year-old, acquired in a €5 million deal from Sporting this summer. "He’s still young but he showed a good game last week and again today,” the Argentine told reporters. "He’s calm and has a lot of quality and potential. We have to give him the possibility to play while being careful with him. But he was the hero today."
