At Molineux, Wolves took just two minutes to open the scoring thanks to Rayan Ait Nouri's fine strike from just outside the box. The home side's excitement continued to increase in the 38th minute, when Djed Spence awkwardly scored an own goal after an opponent's cross, giving Wolves a 2-0 lead. Tottenham appeared to be in disarray at the back, while Wolves made the most of the opportunities created.

In the second half, Tottenham showed signs of improvement when Mathys Tel reduced the score to 1-2 in the 59th minute with a classy handling and finishing in the penalty area. However, just a few minutes later, Jorgen Strand Larsen restored the 2-goal gap with an easy close-range tap-in after an assist from Ait Nouri.

Not giving up, the visitors continued to attack. Richarlison scored to reduce the score to 2-3 in the 85th minute after a smooth combination. But Tottenham's hopes of a point were extinguished just 1 minute later. Matheus Cunha fired a beautiful shot from outside the box, sealing a 4-2 victory for Wolves.

Coach Vitor Pereira showed his skill when a series of personnel changes such as Sarabia, Rodrigo Gomes and Cunha all left a clear mark. On the contrary, Tottenham, despite having quality attacking players, lacked connection, especially in the midfield area.

The 4-2 win helped Wolves move 14 points clear of the relegation zone with only 6 rounds left in the season. Meanwhile, Tottenham continued to stagnate in 15th place in the Premier League table.
