England star Dele Alli started and played for 73 minutes in Tottenham Hotspur's 7-1 hammering of Moses Odubajo's Hull City. Alli netted the third goal for his team in first-half injury time, and teed up Harry Kane for his hat-trick in the 72nd minute.

Defender Matthew Olosunde and Tosin Kehinde were not selected in the Manchester United team, who beat Crystal Palace 2-0 at Old Trafford.
There was also no debut for Olufela Olomola. The striker was not considered as Southampton lost 1-0 to Stoke City at St Mary's Stadium.

Ovie Ejaria, Sheyi Ojo (both Liverpool), Dominic Solanke (Chelsea), Josh Onomah (Tottenham) and Ademola Lookman (Everton) are away on international duty with the England U20 squad in South Korea and didn't feature for their respective teams.
