Everton manager Sean Dyche poked fun at Tottenham star Harry Kane's theatrical fall during their contest this week.

The England captain was hit in the face by the Toffees' Abdoulaye Doucoure.

While Dyche admitted that a red card was a fair decision, he felt that Kane made a meal of very slight contact from Doucoure.

Asked if Doucoure should apologize to him, Dyche told reporters: “No, he certainly doesn't need to apologize. At the end of the day, he knows you can't raise your hands. I thought at one point he might have snapped his [Kane] eyelash and that would have been tragic.

“He seemed to be responding OK. He knows you can't raise your hand in football, it's as simple as that, but he is a very strong-minded character and has worked very hard. A moment when it goes wrong, he is not going to be judged by that by me"
