Dele Alli wondergoal recreated on Fifa

Dele Alli's strike for Tottenham against Crystal Palace at the weekend is being talked about as a goal of the season contender.

The rising star's initial control, flick over the head and volleyed shot were all executed to perfection.

It moved former Spurs player Gareth Bale to hail on Twitter: "What a goal that is!", and just about everyone else to say similar things.

You can see the goal below...

But would it have looked even better if it had been scored on FIFA 16?

To find out, FIFA 16 YouTube star Jamie Bateson recreated the moment on the hugely popular game. You can watch it above.

Speaking after the match, Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino spoke highly about the 19-year-old.

"He showed tremendous quality, it [the goal] will be shown around the world on every TV. It was fantastic. I am very pleased because it was a difficult game.

"I think Dele shows his quality in every game. He's capable of that. He has fantastic potential, (he's) difficult to price like Harry Kane. They have big potential because they are very young."
