However, he ended that drought on Saturday after earning a penalty in the first half against Leicester City. Janssen picked himself up to net from the spot and end a 450 minute wait for a league goal. The striker nearly added more in the second half but shot a free kick just over before sliding a shot past the post as Leicester fought back to earn a 1-1 draw.

After the game, Janssen told the official Spurs website that he was disappointed with the result despite scoring, “The fans have always been behind me and I’m pleased I could give something back with a goal but we wanted more.”
