PHOTO: Steve Nash practices with Tottenham Hotspur

It's no secret that Steve Nash is an enormous soccer fan, co-owning Vancouver Whitecaps FC and holding a charity event involving NBA players hitting the pitch.

Wednesday marked quite a day for Nash in that regard, as he took the pitch with his long-time favorite team Tottenham Hotspur - Nash's father was born in Tottenham - in Toronto ahead of their showdown with Toronto FC on Wednesday.

Nash posted a pair of pictures of himself in action, though theScore can not confirm whether he was as strong from the corner on the pitch as he is from the corner on the hardwood.
