Tottenham midfielder Ryan Mason was thrilled to see Harry Kane score twice in the 2-1 north London derby victory over Arsenal.
The in-form Spurs striker was the toast of White Hart Lane as he made a superb impact on his derby debut with his second half brace.
And Mason believes the 21-year-old’s confidence is one of Tottenham’s biggest assets at the moment.

"He is remarkable," Mason said. "He leads the line on his own and does it unbelievably well.
"You can see the way he is at the moment that he is one fire and can't stop scoring."
Kane now has 22 goals in all competitions this season, with that fine form keeping big-money signings like Roberto Soldado and Emmanuel Adebayor out of the team.

Victories over Arsenal and Chelsea at White Hart Lane have ignited talk of Tottenham breaking into the top four again.
"We believe - of course we do," Mason said. "We did the same thing to Chelsea a little while ago and hopefully we can keep doing well and stay up there.
"It will be difficult but we are confident in ourselves. We're on a good run and the team spirit is amazing. Everyone gets on with each other well.
"It is great to come in off the back of a win and we are buzzing. It's a great feeling."
