British soccer player Harry Kane ended the night with a smile as his side put West Ham United down by two goals to nil in a thrilling London derby.

It was Kane’s first goal in almost six months after returning from a hamstring injury. The England captain celebrated in style as he dived to the ground in front of a silent Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with millions watching from around the world.

It was just his second game back after a lengthy spell on the sidelines. After looking short of his best on Friday in a 1-1 draw against Manchester United, the Spurs star stunningly latched onto a Son Heung-Min through pass to get one-on-one with the goalkeeper — leaving the end result inevitable.

The return of their star man could not have come sooner for Tottenham Hotspur as Jose Mourinho’s team continue their fight for a top four finish.

Just earlier this week manager Mourinho spoke about the importance of the striker to his team, comparing him to the likes of Didier Drogba and Cristiano Ronaldo, whom he has previously managed.

The Englishman could not have found a better way to silence his critics, and this is how Twitter reacted to the goal:
