Wolverhampton Wanderers netted three second-half goals to secure a 3-1 victory against Tottenham Hotspur in their Premier League encounter at Wembley.
A 5-0 Boxing Day win over Bournemouth lifted Spurs above Manchester City into second, but it was their failure to put this match to bed while they were on top that ultimately cost them at Wembley.

Harry Kane gave the home side the lead with a wonderful strike midway through the first half, and Spurs – after scoring 11 goals in their last two matches – might have expected to kick on and subject Wolves to another hammering.

But the home side could not add to their tally despite dominating possession, and Wolves produced a stunning second-half revival, with Raul Jimenez and Helder Costa finding the net after Willy Boly had equalised with the visitors’ first shot on target, ending Spurs’ five-match winning run in the league.
