Should have done better when Ndombele opened the scoring.

Saiss stuck out a leg that may have put the keeper off a bit, but the direction of the ball didn’t change and he was pretty central. Smooth to grant. 5

He really wanted to move forward and try to make things happen, and he did well to create a first-half opportunity for Silva. Caught out of position a couple of times on defense, but overall much more solid. 7

Tottenham started fast and got their goal, but after that Kane and Son gave Coady little trouble. The pattern seemed quite comfortable for most of the game. 7

A brilliant run and a header from Saiss that scored the tie.

I crossed Kane at the first post and then he didn’t give Lloris a chance, deftly nodding his head and ending the Wolves’ long quest for a goal on a set piece. 7

I didn’t ask too many defensive questions. He did not do much wrong, but he also did not offer a large amount in the future before having to be withdrawn. 6

Like fellow midfielder Moutinho, Neves grew in confidence in the second half and showed decent display, helping to build pressure on the Spurs with his passing. 7

There have been doubts as to whether Moutinho and Neves can still do it as a couple and, although they did not dominate at all, they stood their ground and Moutinho was orderly. 7

It gives a start but Traore, again, doesn’t shine. The experienced defender Davies did a good job against him, and the Spaniard often saw his cross attempts blocked or they ended up astray.

His wait for a goal and assist continues. Naturally, he created problems with his pace and power, but he soon started doing more. 5

He always wants the ball and showed flashes of real skill. He wasn’t the Wolves standout player, but he did his bit as they ended up grabbing a deserved point against Mourinho’s side. 7

The Wolves’ best player so far this season and their best player tonight.

The way he glides between the players is remarkable, and the delivery he made to get Saiss in was a delight too.

Neto is a constant threat and a great worker. 8

He missed a couple of good chances, with a first effort brushing the side net and a late header that went straight to Lloris.

However, he did well above 90, maintaining it effectively. 7

Fitted with little fuss. 6

Strong sliding tackle to strip Hojbjerg at the end. 6

Not used: Ruddy (gk), Kilman, Hoever, Cundle, Perry, Corbeanu
