’Dale survive Dele Alli plunge

Rochdale manager Keith Hill celebrated his team’s FA Cup draw with Tottenham - and defended the right of Dele Alli to win the penalty that almost shattered the hosts’ hopes.

Hill even admitted that if Alli won a penalty for England at the World Cup in similar circumstances he would cheer the midfielder.

TV host Gary Lineker tweeted that pundits Alan Shearer and Jermaine Jenas had told him they thought Alli had been fouled by Harrison McGahey.
