‘Live the dream now!’ – Wanyama’s brother recalls Champions League promise made by Tottenham star

Back in 2010 Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Victor Wanyama made a promise to his brother, Harryson Wanyama that he would play in the Uefa Champions League final one day.

Harryson made the revelation following Spurs’ dramatic comeback win over Ajax in the second leg of their semi-final fixture on Wednesday.

Wanyama was in action at the Johan Cruyff Arena for 46 minutes as Mauricio Pochettino's men fought back from a two-goal deficit to defeat their Dutch hosts 3-2, thanks to Lucas Moura's second-half hat-trick.

The aggregate result was 3-3 but the Premier League outfit advanced to their first Uefa Champions League final on the away goals.
