Dele Alli Mocks Terry After Spurs Defeat Chelsea At Stamford Bridge

Dele Alli revelled in Tottenham’s rare away win at Stamford Bridge as he poked fun at Chelsea legend John Terry.

Much-improved Spurs ran out deserved 2-0 winners over their fierce London rivals on Saturday evening, with Mike Penders scoring an unfortunate own goal on his full Blues debut in the Premier League before Mathys Tel sealed the victory with a superb late individual effort.

Cole Palmer was sent off for Chelsea between those goals, picking up two quick-fire bookings for clashing with Mateus Fernandes and then making a bad challenge on Conor Gallagher.

It was certainly a night to remember for resurgent Tottenham, who are celebrating just their second league win at Stamford Bridge for 36 years as back-to-back top-flight triumphs kick-started their campaign and took them up to 12th in the table – their highest league position since New Year’s Day.

According to Yahoo Sports, it wasn’t just Spurs’ current players who delighted in the unexpected success across the capital, with Dele having been in attendance at the game sat next to former long-time Blues captain Terry.

The ex-Tottenham midfielder kept fans amused with his updates throughout the day via Instagram, posting a video of himself laughing as he panned the camera to a disappointed Terry, who shook his head after Penders’ unlucky own goal.

Dele also filmed the scoreboard and Spurs celebrations at Stamford Bridge and later put up a picture of the empty seat beside him along with the caption: “Empty seat here now?”, tagging Terry in all his posts.

He finished his Instagram Stories by posting a celebratory photo alongside fellow former Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas.

Dele spent seven years at Tottenham after joining as an 18-year-old from MK Dons for £5million in 2015, scoring 67 goals and providing 59 assists in 269 total appearances across all competitions.

He has also featured for Everton, Besiktas and Como, earning 37 senior international caps for England between 2015-19 and playing at the 2018 World Cup.
