SportBook Service | Fernando Llorente: Twitter reacts to the Tottenham striker FINALLY scoring his first goal for Spurs

 Tottenham striker Fernando Llorente netted his first goal for the club against APOEL Nicosia

FERNANDO LLORENTE finally got off the mark for Tottenham to send social media into meltdown.

In what is his 17th appearance for Spurs, the towering centre-forward scored a delightful goal to put his side in front against APOEL Nicosia.

After being restricted to substitute appearances for the Lilywhites this season, Mauricio Pochettino started the ex-Swansea star with the club already securing top spot in Group H.

And he repaid his managers trust with an exquisite finish in the 20th minute at Wembley.

Right-back Serge Aurier whipped in a low delivery just behind the 32-year-old, but with his first touch, he gloriously spun the defender before firing low past goalkeeper Nauzet Perez.

It was a first goal to savour, and certainly one that will live long in the memory of Spurs fans.

And he was on hand to play a major part in Spurs' second goal when he combined beautifully with Son Heung-Min.

Llorente played a neat one-two with the South Korean international on the edge of the area, before the ex-Bayer Leverkusen ace lashed home his strike from distance into the corner.
