Moura, Moura, Moura, how do you like it?
Lucas Moura celebrated his first hat-trick in Europe and the first hat-trick at the newly built Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with his infant son on Saturday afternoon, in front of a crowd of adoring Spurs fans.
Lucas doubled Tottenham's lead shortly after Victor Wanyama opened the scoring with a powerful shot from just inside the penalty area, leaving Huddersfield's Ben Hamer helpless to stop it between the sticks.
The rest of the game was a formality, as a heavily rotates Spurs side dominated possession. Two more late goals from Lucas topped off a professional performance from Tottenham, completing his hat-trick and securing his place in the answers to countless future pub quizzes.

After the final whistle, Lucas brought his one-year-old son out onto the pitch, savouring every moment of this special day for him.
The crowd cheered every time his kid touched the ball and honestly, it was delightful to see.

Lucas has given Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino a big selection headache ahead of their Champions League quarter-final second leg against Manchester City on Wednesday. Lucas has mostly come off the bench this season, but with Harry Kane ruled out for the rest of the season, the Brazilian has may well have just fought his way into the starting XI.
Heung-min Son, the hero of the first leg, will start on Wednesday after being rested against Huddersfield, and Lucas could well start too after this magnificent performance, with Dele Alli also doubtful having broken a bone in his hand during the first leg.
