Wolves claimed a staggering late 2-1 victory against Spurs with two brilliant injury-time goals in the Premier League’s lunchtime kick-off, according to Eurosport.

 

Brennan Johnson put Spurs ahead inside three minutes with his first goal for the club. Dejan Kulusevski released Pedro Porro down the right, who then slid the ball across goal to Johnson to tap in.

 

It was a tight game with few clear-cut chances in normal time. Wolves had numerous chances to test a makeshift Spurs back line but their delivery from set pieces in particular was poor.

 

The introduction of Pablo Sarabia changed everything. In the first minute of injury time he drew the game level with a sensational trap and volley from a cross by Matheus Cunha.

 

Molineux then went wild in the final seconds, as a cute through pass from Sarabia allowed Mario Lemina to clip in a dramatic late winner.

 

Sarabia’s introduction provided the final flourishes, but Lemina’s performance over the full match just edges it. He kept Wolves on the front foot throughout the second half, and was a fitting scorer of the late goal that sent Molineux into a frenzy.
