Wolves 1-0 Spurs – Saturday, 4 March 2023

Molineux Stadium, Wolverhampton

Spurs’ most recent match against Wolverhampton Wanderers came in March 2023 at Molineux. The home side managed to secure a narrow 1-0 victory against their North London counterparts.

Ahead of this game, Tottenham were in 4^th place with 45 points to their name. The Lilywhites were right in the mix for Champions League qualification, and they were only 4 points adrift of Manchester United in 3^rd place. They were also 4 points ahead of 5^th place Newcastle United.

Tottenham had won their most recent match ahead of their trip to the West Midlands. The Lilywhites emerged as 2-0 winners against Chelsea at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Harry Kane (82’) and Oliver Skipp (46’) scoring what was a fantastic goal to earn Spurs a deserved and resounding victory against their London rivals.

As for Wolves, they sat in 15^th place with 24 points, and they were just 3 points above the relegation zone.

Tottenham came close several times to take the lead in the early stages of the first half. First, it was Dejan Kulusevski, whose long range effort flew narrowly wide of the post before January signing Pedro Porro saw a shot of his own go wide (2’).

Heung-Min Son then forced a fantastic save from José Sá a few minutes later when he unleashed an effort on goal that looked to be destined for the top left corner after the South Korea international received the ball from Kulusevski (5’).

Spurs’ next chance to open the scoring near the end of the first half through Ivan Perisic. The Croatian forward took a shot from a tight angle which was saved well at the near post by José Sá (41’).

A chance for Dejan Kulusevski then followed, but the effort on goal from the Sweden international was blocked well by the Wolves defence in first half stoppage time (45+6’).

The half time break then came with the two teams on level terms going into the second half.

Son came close yet again to scoring the opening goal of the match for Spurs at the start of the second half, but his effort was blocked well by Wolves’ defenders (47’).

Tottenham did dominate the early stages of the second half, and Harry Kane and Spanish right back Pedro Porro were both unlucky not to find the back of the net, with both of their respective shots being blocked well by a resilient Wolves defence (53’).

The away side continued to pile on the pressure. French central defender Clement Llenglet saw a header saved well by Sá (59’), before a shot from Son also failing to beat Wolves’ Portuguese goalkeeper (60’).

Pedro Porro, after receiving the ball from Kulusevski, then had another opportunity to open the scoring for Spurs when he had a long range effort saved well by the Wolves goalkeeper (64’).

In the dying embers of the match, Spurs continued to have chances. Firstly, Harry Kane saw his shot blocked before an effort from Perisic flew narrowly wide of the post, and the score remained level at 0-0 (80’).

Unfortunately for Spurs, it was to be heartbreak. Just seconds after a chance came and went from Raul Jimenez, Adama Traore found the back of the net for Wolves to give them the lead, and it would prove costly for Spurs, who were unable to restore parity in the time left (82’).

The match ended 1-0 to the home side. Spurs not only dominated the ball, they also had the most shots on target. Tottenham had 53.5% possession compared to Wolves’ 46.5%. The Lilywhites edged shots on target with 6 as opposed to 5 for the home team.
