Tottenham Hotspur earned a dramatic point against Arsenal on Saturday.

Jermaine Jenas of Spurs looks on from the bench during the Barclays Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur and Stoke City at White Hart Lane on April 9, 2011 in London, England.

You can take the boy out of Tottenham Hotspur….

Footage has emerged online of former Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas passionately celebrating Hugo Lloris’s last-minute penalty save against Arsenal on Saturday.

Spurs looked set to lose 2-1 to the Gunners in yesterday’s North London derby, but Lloris denied Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from 12 yards in stoppage time.

Rio Ferdinand, Jenas’s BT Sports colleague, captured the moment on Instagram and the Lilywhites legend, who spent eight years at White Hart Lane until 2013, can be seen leaping from his seat and shouting ‘Get in there Hugo’.

Victory would’ve taken Arsenal – whose first-half opener through Aaron Ramsey was cancelled out by Harry Kane on 75 minutes – to within one point of third-placed Tottenham.

There was controversy over the penalty as Jan Vertonghen – who cleared a follow-up effort off the line – was perhaps guilty of encroaching in the area, prior to Aubameyang striking the ball.
