Tottenham Hotspur beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday in the Premier League and the 3-1 win was the first victory that the Lilywhites have enjoyed at Chelsea’s home ground since 1990.
Picking up three points at their arch-rivals home for the first time in 28 years was clearly a proud moment for Mauricio Pochettino and his men. And amongst the stars that shone during the game was Dele Alli.
Alli has received a fair amount of criticism after he saw a slight dip in form but with a brace against the Blues, the English International has aptly silenced his doubters.
Amongst the people who were happy that Alli was back amongst the goals was a certain Ian Wright.
Pundit Ian Wright was delighted for the England midfielder and had no intention of hiding his feelings.

But the Arsenal legend’s celebrations have not gone down too well with the Gunners faithful and many people are confused as to why the Wright was so happy with a Spurs player scoring.
Here are some Twitter reactions:
Disappointed in you Wrighty

While the Arsenal fans are angry with the fact that one of their own legends was celebrating a Spurs’ goal but what many people have failed to notice is that fact that Wright had managed MK Dons during the 2012-13 season and Dele Alli is a product of the very same club.
