Dele Alli was the man of the moment as England defeated France at Wembley on Tuesday night.

The Tottenham teenager made his first start for the Three Lions and starred in the 2-0 win with a stunning opening goal and midfield tackle on Paul Pogba which led to Wayne Rooney's 48th-minute volley.

After the assured performance, manager Roy Hodgson spoke highly of Alli who only mad this way to the Premier League this past summer from MK Dons.

"It was close to a faultless performance - I didn't think at any moment in the game that he was going to be anything other than top class," said Hodgson.

"It is amazing that at his age to have no previous experience unless you count a few 10-minute substitute appearances, to go in and do what he did tonight was quite outstanding.

"I've certainly seen some players who want to say to me, you might have a few big names missing but you don't have to worry because we're here, and that's a nice thing not only for me to know but for the country to know."
