Tottenham vs Wolves LIVE: Premier League result and final score
Follow all the action from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Struggling Tottenham Hotspur had to settle for a 2-2 home draw against a revived Wolverhampton Wanderers side after a late strike by Norwegian substitute Jorgen Strand Larsen in an entertaining Premier League clash on Sunday.
Wolves had taken the lead after seven minutes through Hwang Hee-Chan who fired a low shot that went in off the post after a short free kick, but Spurs equalised five minutes later when Rodrigo Bentancur’s header beat keeper Jose Sa from a corner.
Tottenham spurned the chance to go in front before halftime when Son Heung-Min’s spot kick was saved but they did go in ahead after Brennan Johnson struck from close range. The second half was end-to-end with Strand Larsen scoring in the 87th minute.
The result left Spurs languishing in 11th with 24 points from 19 games - the first time they will finish the year lower than seventh since the 2008-09 season. Wolves are 17th on 16 points and stand two points above the relegation zone.

The game has just slowed in tempo a little, perhaps to be expected after such a frantic start. You'd imagine Pereira will be pretty pleased with how his side has fared so far, though their defending from set-pieces has left a lot to be desired.

A comedic moment sees Solanke and Bentancur collide as both try to fire Kulusevski's low cross goalwards. Neither ultimately makes contact, though the flag eventually goes up for offside, perhaps to the two players' relief.

Persistent work from Bellegarde sees him keep the ball in when it looked certain to go out, ultimately helping his side to win a corner. However, Spurs deal with the resulting set-piece.

WIDE! Spurs nearly score again from a set-piece, Dragusin getting on the end of Porro's cross before nodding narrowly wide. Pereira will be concerned at how his side has defended corners so far in this contest.

After some treatment, Forster is up and looks like he will be okay to continue, much to Spurs fans' relief.

Forster is down here, and Postecoglou will be hoping he doesn't have to go to his third-choice goalkeeper with number one Guglielmo Vicario already out with an ankle injury.
