Spurs TV: Okay Sonny’s with us here at Watford. Sonny, the match winner. And first of all we saw the celebrations. How much did it mean to win here so late?

Son Heung-min: Yeah I was… I don’t know… I was… I don’t how I can say. I was very crazy. It was a very important goal to get three points. I am very happy. We are very happy I think, three points to get.

STV: When Kieran crossed the ball, you had so little time to think. What went through your mind?

SHM: Yeah I don’t know. For me, it was so slow this time, the cross was slow for me. I don’t know. I don’t know what happened. And cross was perfect. Kieran was perfect for me. And for me, I just think it was a little bit lucky.

STV: You say lucky, we say brilliant. Because if you meant to do it, then it’s a brilliant finish Sonny. Stop being shy.

SHM: Yeah it’s very nice. Very nice. For me, it’s very nice to score again. Good feeling and very important goal. I’m very happy to win.

STV: When you are on the bench you want to come on and make things happen. And that’s what you’ve done today.

SHM: Yes I was very — I was injured. And then I come… I was fit again and then on the bench. But I work very hard for team and I think this time it was very good to score and to have full team.

STV: It was a tough game wasn’t it? I mean even when Watford had 10 men, they fight all the way don’t they?

SHM: Yeah it’s not easy, it’s not easy. I know — we know. It was 1-0 then it was 1-1 and then they fight and then they get one red card. It’s not easy for us that they have 10 player to defend and their counterattack and then we worked very hard score. And then I don’t know. I’m very happy to win.

STV: Would it have been easier to tell someone to just score a backheel in the last minute?

SHM: [laughs] Yeah I’m very happy. But we must have very concentration for our next game.
