The 19-year-old netted a stunning individual goal from the edge of the area, while Harry Kane and Nacer Chadli were also on target Dele Alli scored one of the goals of the season to inspire Tottenham to a 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace.

From the edge of the area, Alli received the ball, flicked it over the head of the onrushing Mile Jedinak, and drilled a volley hard and low past Wayne Hennessey.

Spurs had gone behind in the 30th minute following Jan Verthonghen’s own goal, but second-half strikes from Harry Kane, Alli and Nacer Chadli keep Mauricio Pochettino’s men in four place but just two points behind second-placed Arsenal.
