Jose Mourinho praised a quick-thinking ballboy after Tottenham came from two goals down to beat Olympiakos 4-2 and qualify for the knockout stages of the Champions League.

The Greek side took a 2-0 lead in the game before Dele Alli’s goal inspired a Tottenham comeback. Alli’s first European goal in more than two years, a brace from Harry Kane, and a rare Serge Aurier strike sent Tottenham into the last 16.

Harry Kane’s first, which levelled the Group B encounter early in the second period, came after a ballboy set Spurs on the attack by quickly throwing on a replacement ball for a throw-in, prompting praise from Mourinho.

See what the Tottenham boss had to say about the ballboy in the video posted above.
