# Tottenham: Fans love Jan Vertonghen’s Instagram dig at Moussa Sissoko

**Plenty of Tottenham fans are enjoying what Jan Vertonghen posted on Instagram after the 3-2 win over Bournemouth, as the Belgium international had a cheeky dig at Moussa Sissoko.**

It happened, it finally happened.

It’s been a long time since Sissoko found the back of the net in a Tottenham shirt, and over two years on from his [October 2017 strike](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/spielbericht/index/spielbericht/2929866) against West Ham in the Carabao Cup, the France international struck once more against Bournemouth on Saturday.

It turned out to be a crucial goal as well courtesy of a late brace from Liverpool loanee Harry Wilson, and Vertonghen was one of the first to congratulate Sissoko on social media.

As one fan [shared on Twitter](https://twitter.com/NozAhmed/status/1201192882205540352), the Belgian defender tagged Sissoko as a ‘goat’ (greatest of all time) in his Instagram post, but he couldn’t resist a little mockery of his goal-shy teammate too.

The 32 year-old commented on Sissoko’s own post about the goal, claiming it was actually a cross.
