Tottenham Hotspur legend Gary Lineker has mocked Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno on Twitter.

Former Tottenham striker Lineker has suggested that Leno should have kept out Eric Dier’s goal for Mauricio Pochettino’s team in the ongoing North London derby.

Arsenal took the lead at the Emirates Stadium as early as the 10th minute the Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang found the net from the penalty spot.

The Gunners were the better team in the opening minutes of the first half, but Spurs came back strongly and are now 2-1 up.

Dier scored the equaliser on the half-hour mark when he turned in Christian Eriksen’s free kick at the near post.

Four minutes later Tottenham were awarded a penalty of their own, and England international striker Kane did not have any problem in successfully converting it.

Former Tottenham striker Lineker is following the match, and he has mocked Leno on Twitter for his role in the first Spurs goal, suggesting that well-known American comedian and actor Jay Leno would have saved it.
