- Wolverhampton 1-1 Tottenham (0-1)
José Mourinho and Tottenham looked poised for their first Premier League win since the game against Arsenal in early December. They did not succeed.
For Romain Saïss he tied in the corner just before the end, and ensured that the match ended 1-1. Thus, Tanguy Ndombele did not win the match as it seemed for a long time, when he scored the first goal of the match before the minute was played by arrangement.
Tottenham have lost a total of nine points in the last ten minutes of games this season. It’s more than any other Premier League team, writes Sky Sports.
– It’s very frustrating. Such a late goal and again from set pieces. We were only 1-0 up so it cost us two points, we’re not happy about that, Matt Doherty told Sky Sports after the game.
“A point against Wolves would not normally be a bad result, but when you score in the first minute and you are in control, it is frustrating,” José Mourinho told Sky Sports after the game.
Punished for a big party
Four games without winning
The tie means that Tottenham have played four league games in a row without winning. The last time there were three points for José Mourinho and company. It was on December 6, when they beat Arsenal 2-0 at home.
Since then, there have been two draws and two losses. This means the Spurs are number five in the table with six points ahead of league leaders Liverpool, who also gave points at the rear early Sunday against West Bromwich.
But for a long time it seemed that there would be three points for the London team. After just 58 seconds, they took the lead. Following a corner kick, the ball landed on Ndombele’s legs, who jumped on the first touch. The ball bounced right in front of goalkeeper Rui Patrício and entered the goal.
Then there were probably more who believed in celebrating goals, although it seems unlikely that the average of one goal per minute will be maintained throughout the match. And while a couple of good chances were created, it was 85 minutes before the next goal came.
Wolverhampton equalizer
At the ninth turn at Wolverhampton, Romain Saïss came up and surprised at 1-1.
After 96 minutes, an error by the local left defense allowed Fabio Silva to pass. The youngster’s header from six meters was stunned on the pitch, but Hugo Lloris was on the score sheet.
– We started the game conceding a bad goal. So it’s difficult to come back against a team like Tottenham, but I think we deserved more, Saïss said after the game.
Thus, it ended 1-1. Wolverhampton is now number eleven with 21 points.
