Dele Alli volleys equaliser to keep Tottenham in top-four hunt

Everton 1 Tottenham 1: Dele Alli, a Liverpool supporter as a boy, scored the goal against their Merseyside rivals which prevented Aaron Lennon, a former Tottenham player, from making Everton only the third team to beat the Londoners in the Premier League this season.

Either player would therefore have made a fitting match-winner on a day the big guns of Romelua Lukaku and Harry Kane were eclipsed.

But despite a game of almost non-stop attacking, no-one else was able to add to add their name to the scoresheet as Everton avoided a third straight home defeat and Tottenham banked another point towards their quest to secure a top-four finish and a Champions League place.
