Dele Alli's late equaliser preserved Tottenham's unbeaten record as they came from behind to draw 1-1 at West Brom on Saturday.

A brilliant performance from Ben Foster kept a dominant Spurs at bay in the first half and it looked as though West Brom had snatched victory when Nacer Chadli fired home against his former side in the 82nd minute.

Foster came out quickly to block a close-range shot from Alli before the England midfielder volleyed wide after swivelling in the box.

Davies was then denied by a fine stop from Foster, who also saved one-on-one from Alli and superbly kept out a deflected effort from Eriksen.

West Brom's only opening of the first half came in injury-time when Hugo Lloris spilt James McClean's shot but managed to clear before Rondon could tap in.

Spurs' control of the game waned after the break and they suffered a setback when Alderweireld had to be carried off on a stretcher on the hour mark.

Chances also dried up for the visitors and it was West Brom who threatened more as the game wore on.

They took the lead in the 82nd minute when McClean's shot was saved by Lloris and Chadli, who left Spurs in the summer to join West Brom, fired the rebound into the roof of the net.
