Tottenham loses by 1goal to 3 against Wolverhampton. Harry Kane put Spurs in front midway through the first half, picking the ball up from deep out wide, cutting inside and finding the top corner from outside the area with a sumptuous strike on his weaker left foot.
The goal was Kane’s fourth in three league games but was not enough to see off the dogged visitors, who have taken points off some of the biggest teams such as Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United in their return to the top flight.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side levelled in the 72nd minute with a thumping header from a corner from French defender Willy Boly after a period of sustained pressure around Tottenham’s area.
Mexican forward Raul Jimenez then gave them the lead in the 83rd minute and Helder Costa sealed the win with a counter-attack goal in the 87th.
A first home defeat since late October leaves second-placed Tottenham six points adrift of Liverpool, who can widen that gap when they host Arsenal later on Saturday. Manchester City could reclaim the second spot if they win at Southampton on Sunday.
