Jorgen Strand Larsen: Tottenham Hotspur endured a tough afternoon as Wolverhampton Wanderers ran out 4-2 winners at Molineux, extending their unbeaten run against Spurs to five matches and closing the gap to just two points in the Premier League table.A nightmare start saw Wolves take the lead just 85 seconds in, with Rayan Ait-Nouri lashing home a half-volley after Spurs failed to clear a wide free-kick. VAR checked for offside but the goal stood. Ange Postecoglou’s side looked rattled early on, and despite some signs of attacking intent – including a blocked volley from Mathys Tel and a long-range strike from Yves Bissouma – the hosts struck again before half-time. Guglielmo Vicario pushed a header away under pressure, but the ball struck Djed Spence and bounced into his own net to make it 2-0 at the break.
Spurs pulled one back shortly before the hour mark through Tel, who finished off a slick move started by Lucas Bergvall and assisted by Brennan Johnson’s low cross. However, Wolves responded almost immediately, capitalising on defensive indecision. Cristian Romero appeared to have the situation under control, but Ait-Nouri pounced, setting up Jorgen Strand Larsen for a simple tap-in to restore Wolves’ two-goal cushion.
