Tottenham 2-1 Burnley: Alli and Rose seal Spurs comeback

Tottenham needed goals from Dele Alli and Danny Rose to secure a 2-1 win over Burnley at White Hart Lane after Ashley Barnes had given the visitors an early lead.

Burnley opened the scoring after some sloppy play by Spurs who gave away possession, allowing the visitors to cross and Barnes to slide in and poke home from close range.

The lead was short-lived however, Dele Alli slotting home the equaliser from a Kyle Walker cross just six minutes later.

Tottenham then took the lead with 20 minutes to go, Danny Rose firing home after good work from substitute Moussa Sissoko to secure the three points.
