Tottenham Hotspur salvaged a dramatic 1-1 draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with João Palhinha scoring a stoppage-time equalizer. Wolves came agonizingly close to securing their first Premier League win of the season but were denied in the dying minutes, leaving them rooted to the bottom of the table.

Wolves Take the Lead Through Santi Bueno

After a goalless first half, the visitors stunned Spurs early in the second half. In the 54th minute, Wolves’ defender Santi Bueno pounced to give his side the lead, sparking hope among the traveling fans that their team could finally secure a long-awaited victory.

Wolves held their shape well and frustrated Spurs, who struggled to find clear openings. For much of the second half, it looked as though Wolves would walk away with all three points.

Spurs’ Last-Gasp Equalizer

Tottenham piled on the pressure in the final stages, pushing Wolves deeper into their half. Just when Wolves thought they had done enough, João Palhinha struck in the 90+4th minute, firing past the keeper to level the game.

The equalizer sent the home crowd into celebration while Wolves were left devastated, having come so close to an important win.

What the Result Means

• Tottenham: The draw keeps Spurs in 4th place with 11 points, maintaining their presence in the Champions League spots. While they avoided defeat, questions remain about their ability to break down compact defenses.
  
• Wolves: Still searching for their first victory, Wolves sit 20th in the Premier League table with only a handful of points. Their inability to see out results has put them in an early relegation battle.

Final Thoughts

Tottenham may feel relieved to have rescued a point, but their performance lacked cutting edge for long stretches of the game. Wolves, meanwhile, will see this as two points dropped after holding the lead for over 35 minutes.

As Spurs remain in the top four, Wolves’ fight for survival continues, with the pressure mounting on them to turn spirited performances into wins.
