Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter are ecstatic after a club announcement was made regarding their first game at the New White Hart Lane against Crystal Palace on Wednesday 3 April.

Spurs supporters learned that the historic match will kick off at 7:45pm and be preceded by an Opening Ceremony that will take place around 30 minutes before the London derby gets underway.

The news increased an already high excitement level among the fan-base about the new stadium, which will be tested out for the first time by an U18 Premier League clash and Tottenham Legends encounter later in March.

It came after the club revealed on Monday the Eagles would be the first visitors to the site nine months after it was originally scheduled to open in September 2018.

Some fans simply replied to the announcement with a "can't wait" comment, while others used GIFs to display their unbridled joy at the "beautiful news."
