Alli Expected Madrid Win

Dele Alli, who scored a brace in the 3-1 win over Madrid, says he is not surprised Tottenham showed the quality to beat the UCL champions.

Tottenham were the better team at Wembley, as they outplayed the defending champions in the UCL, winning 3-1.

England midfielder, Dele Alli scored two goals on in either half, with Eriksen scoring the other goal.

“To be honest, no,” Alli told BT Sport when asked if he was surprised by Tottenham’s performance following their 1-1 draw in last month’s reverse fixture at the Santiago Bernabeu.

“We spoke after the game at their place and said we couldn’t believe how much space we had at times and that the easy pass looked too obvious at times and we were too sloppy.

“I think we knew that if we were solid at the back we’d get the chances and with the team we’ve got here we don’t just want to be competing with these teams, we want to be winning.

“It was a fantastic performance from us. We stuck to the game plan and made a lot of chances – it could have been more but we’re very happy with the result.”
