Alfie Devine made history on Sunday evening as he became Tottenham's youngest ever goalscorer.
Handed his senior bow off the bench in the FA Cup tie against Marine, the 16-year-old scored 15 minutes after coming on for the start of the second half.
Collecting the ball inside the area, the ex-Wigan Athletic youngster found a gap at the near post to fire in a low drive beyond Marine shot-stopper Bayleigh Passant.
Impressive in his time on the pitch, Devine almost finished the game with an assist as Carlos Vinicius shot wide in stoppage time after the midfielder picked him out.
Taking to his Instagram account after the 5-0 victory, Devine has stated there's "hopefully more to come" after netting his first Spurs goal in style.
"A night I will never forget," he said. "So happy to make my professional debut and become Tottenham's youngest ever player and goalscorer. Hopefully more to come.
"Congrats @harveywhite48 on your first start."
Linking up with Tottenham's U18s in the summer, Devine was given pitch time by Jose Mourinho in the pre-season victory against Ipswich Town.
Impressing for both the U18s and the development squad over the past few months, the boss was full of praise when quizzed about the youngster after the cup win.
"He's a kid with good potential that came to the club only this summer," explained the boss. "He was lucky enough to have pre-season with us because we were short of players, so he had pre-season with us and played a few friendlies.
"Which of course gave him close contact with the first team. He's not a stranger, and then working in the academy, playing in different teams in the academy.
"Coming to us sometimes to train so a nice process for him. Also some experience in the youth teams and in the national team so step by step he's going.
"He's a kid that basically is a midfield player but with an instinct to appear in finishing zones and to score goals. We like him and of course for him today is a special day."
