ShareHalf time: Spurs 0-0 Wolves
A frustrating half for Spurs, who dominated without creating too many clear chances. The closest they came to scoring was when Mohammed Kudus’s header was touched onto the bar by Sam Johnstone; it was an outstanding reaction save.
Share45+4 min: Doherty hits the post!
A Wolves corner is headed on and reaches Doherty beyond the far post. He leans back and sidefoots a half-volley that hits the outside of the near post! Tough chance.
45+3 min Arias breaks dangerously for Wolves, slipping Bentancur before moving into space, but Udogie comes across to make an important tackle just outside the area.
45+1 min Kudus’s outside-of-the-boot cross nicks off Andre and just evades the stretching Richarlison at the far post. Had he made contact he would probably have scored because Johnstone didn’t have time to get across his line.
44 min I thought Munetsi fouled Palhinha when I first saw it. The replays aren’t totally conclusive, and there is also the possibility that any contact was outside the area. I’d like to see a few more replays though.
43 min Kudus’s shot is beaten away by Johnstone with the ball bouncing towards the edge of the area. Munetsi doesn’t see Palhinha on his blindside and seems to kick him in the chest. Palhinha goes down but the referee says no penalty; it’ll be checked by your friend in Stockley Park.
The original decision is upheld: no penalty.
43 min “I enjoy watching Wolves play and only wish them the best,” says Peter Oh. “They may be in the relegation zone at the moment, but with a Bueno and another Bueno on the pitch, they are certainly two ‘good’ to go down!”

41 min Kudus’s cross from the right is scissor-kicked over the bar by Bergvall, 12 yards out. Nice effort but well off target.
40 min Simons is tripped by Joao Gomes, who becomes the last player to receive a yellow card. That one looked a bit harsh.
38 min Arias bullets a shot over the bar from the edge of the area. Wolves have come back into the game in the last few minutes.
38 min Munetsi is holding his shoulder after landing awkwardly. He’s in a fair bit of pain but looks okay to continue.
35 min And now Doherty is booked for tripping Udogie.
32 min Simons is booked for a lunging tackle on Munetsi.
30 min A flying near-post header from Richarlison (I think) is well blocked by Krejci.
30 min A couple of corners in quick succession for Spurs. Nothing happens with either but for the first time it feels like a goal is coming.
27 min: Disallowed goal Spurs are taking control of the game slowly but surely. They thought they’d scored a moment ago when Kudus finished emphatically from Bergvall’s backflick, only for the flag to go up for offside. It was a simple decision for the assistant.

23 min Udogie’s pass is half blocked by a Wolves player and spins kindly towards Bergvall in the area. He fresh-airs an attempted volley and the danger passes.
21 min Spurs appeal for a penalty when Andre boots a cross straight into the face of his teammate Santiago Bueno. That’s not handball, lads.
19 min Spurs are starting to enjoy more possession, though that Kudus header remains their only chance of not.
Share15 min: Kudus hits the bar!
Simons cuts inside from the left and curls a wicked ball to the far post. It evades the falling Richarlison and bounces up towards Kudus, whose powerful close-range header is fingertipped onto the bar by Johnstone. That’s a marvellous reflex save.
13 min That Spurs lorner leads to another, which leads to a Wolves throw-in on the far side.
12 min The Spurs crowd appeal for a penalty when Udogie’s cross hits the arm of Doherty in the area. It was tight to his body to a corner is all Spurs will get.
9 min Possession percentages so far: Spurs 38-62 Wolves. That sums up a really confident start by Wolves.
6 min Wolves have made an excellent start. Munetsi raids down the left this time and flips a good cross that ricochets around the Spurs area before being cleared.
4 min Hwang does well to win a corner on the left for Wolves. Arias’s fast, flat corner is headed dangerously across goal and booted away at the far post.
1 min Peep peep! Spurs kick off left to right as we watch.
Here come the players. It’s an important night for Wolves, who are currently pointless after five Premier League games. Truly, they’re better than that.
