Lucas Moura is a big fan of Middlesbrough icon Juninho and revealed as much prior to Tottenham's FA Cup third-round clash with Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium.
The Brazil international levelled the tie in the second half after Ashley Fletcher opened the scoring for the hosts, meaning that both teams will face off once again in north London.
That means that both teams are in the hat for Monday's FA Cup fourth-round draw and will know what is at stake when they meet at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium later this month.
While Moura made an impression on the field, an anecdote from the exciting forward was revealed by BT Sport's commentary team during the second half.
"He pointed at a player of Juninho on the wall here and he told a couple of the other Tottenham boys, in good English, 'hey, proper player'," it was stated by BT commentator Paul Dempsey.
The former attacking midfielder enjoyed two spells on Teesside, either side of a stint with Atletico Madrid, and was a part of the side that won the League Cup in the 2003-04 season.
Middlesbrough and Spurs will now face each other again later this month in the replay.
