Crystal Palace Manager Roy Hodgson Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dili Allini was standing against the allegations that he was a diver.
England international, Anfield, was criticized for booking for simulation and came back again after winning a 2-2 FA Cup draw on the final weekend in Rochete.
But Hodgson said Alli was "no cheat" as he prepared his side to resist Spurs at Selhurst Park on Sunday.
"We talk about Tottenham and our team have discussed, but we can not talk to Dili Alli and Diving because I do not think he's - it's normal," he said.
"He runs the ball and I fall down and I work with him, and the England coach did not see any role in his role or character to point out the fraud in his time.
"Yes, he knocked out of the penalty area, and he was fouled, some punished and some were not, and the penalty was called people he dived.
"That day is the nature of football, but he's cheated and he's perfect, he does not dive."
