Serge Aurier Denies Spitting into Crowd During Tottenham Goal Celebration

Tottenham Hotspur defender Serge Aurier has dismissed suggestions he spat at his own fans following his goal in the UEFA Champions League win over Olympiacos on Tuesday.

Spurs found themselves two goals down in the contest before they produced a brilliant fightback to win 4-2 in Jose Mourinho's first home game in charge as manager. Aurier's sweet strike put Tottenham in front on the night.

After the goal, there was some talk on social media that the Ivory Coast international spat in the direction of supporters. However, the 26-year-old denied that was the case in a post on his Instagram page.
