Tottenham falls to Wolves and drops to 15th

Tottenham Hotspur’s struggles in the Premier League continued on Saturday with a 4-2 defeat against Wolverhampton Wanderers. The loss marked another blow for manager Ange Postecoglou, whose side has now slipped to 15th place in the table, despite holding a safe gap of sixteen points above the relegation zone.

Disastrous start for Spurs

It took just two minutes for Wolves to expose Tottenham’s vulnerability. Rayan Aït-Nouri opened the scoring early, putting the hosts ahead and immediately putting Spurs on the back foot. The situation worsened before the break when Djed Spence accidentally turned the ball into his own net, sending Tottenham into halftime with a 2-0 deficit. The first half summed up the disarray that has come to define Tottenham’s recent run of form lacking structure, composure, and resilience when under pressure.

Second-half response not enough

Tottenham showed some signs of life after the break, with Mathys Tel pulling one back shortly after the restart. His goal offered a brief glimpse of hope for the visitors, but Wolves quickly snuffed it out. Goals from Jorgen Strand Larsen and Matheus Cunha extended the lead and confirmed victory for the home side. Richarlison managed to score a late consolation goal for Spurs, but it did little to change the outcome or the mood surrounding the club’s performance.

Fifteenth place and mounting pressure

This latest defeat drops Tottenham to fifteenth in the Premier League standings, a shocking position for a club of their stature and ambition. Although they are still sixteen points above the relegation zone, the form and trajectory of the team continue to worry fans and pundits alike. With the season entering its final stretch, Ange Postecoglou must find a way to stop the slide. Tottenham needs both defensive stability and attacking consistency if they are to avoid further embarrassment and finish the campaign with a measure of dignity. As Wolves celebrate a strong performance, Spurs are left reflecting on yet another missed opportunity and the long road back to form and confidence.
