Tynes was impressed by the fans' enthusiasm in London

New York Giants kicker Lawrence Tynes admitted the enthusiasm of fans in London made him change his view that NFL games would not work in the city.

Scottish-born Tynes told BBC Sport when the game against Miami was announced that it would not convert British fans.

But after kicking seven points in the Giants' 13-10 win at Wembley, he said: "I would love to come back here.

"I was one of the sceptical people earlier, but I didn't realise how many football fans there were [in the UK]."

However, he warned: "I think too much would be overkill because it takes a dedicated group of fans to come in week in and week out.

"But I think one or two games a year [would work]."

Tynes blamed the rain and mud for his missed field goal, which could have sealed the victory with 12 minutes left.

"It got really bad late in the third and fourth quarter. Fortunately we were able to go on to win," he continued.

"I slipped about 18 inches. I didn't do anything different but my plant leg just came out from under me. I'm just thankful we won.

"I wish we could have had drier weather so fans could have got a better show."

Tynes, who moved to Florida from Scotland aged 10 spoke to reporters after the game with a shirt from his childhood favourite side Celtic around his neck, with his name on the back.

The 29-year-old, who has a strong American accent, started his professional career in the UK with the Scottish Claymores and admitted to a special sense of enjoyment in landing three kicks at Wembley.

"I probably have more goals here than any Scotsman in the last 10 years," he joked.

"It was really exciting to put the first points up there because this is where it all started for me in 2002, up at Hampden Park."
