Man-for-man ratings from Newcastle vs Tottenham

Dele Alli opened his account for the season as Tottenham held onto a first half lead to beat Newcastle 2-1 at St James' Park.

Jan Vertonghen headed Davinson Sanchez's effort from a corner goalwards from close range, and despite Martin Dubravka's best efforts, a goal was awarded through goal-line technology.

Joselu brought Newcastle back onto level terms two minutes later when he was found unmarked in the area to head beyond Hugo Lloris. Alli then scored the game's third and final goal in the 18th minute to hand Maurico Pochettinho's side three points in their opening game.
