For Tottenham, it was a strangely flat and frustrating fixture despite there still being some positives to take away from a game they were expected to control and win comfortably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-yoast-seo-table-of-contents yoast-table-of-contents\"><h2>In this article, we&#8217;ll cover:<\/h2><ul><li><a href=\"#h-tottenham-s-left-bears-fruit\" data-level=\"2\">Tottenham\u2019s left bears fruit<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-bergvall-s-relentless-energy\" data-level=\"2\">Bergvall\u2019s relentless energy<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-palhinha-the-hero\" data-level=\"2\">Palhinha the hero<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tottenham-s-left-bears-fruit\">Tottenham\u2019s left bears fruit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tottenham consistently found joy progressing down the left flank against Wolves, exploiting space shrewdly courtesy of their smartly executed dynamics down this side. Key to this was when Jhon Arias stepped out to press left centre-back Micky van de Ven, which subsequently meant Destiny Udogie, Rodrigo Bentancur and Xavi Simons were placed in advantageous 3v2 situations. This opened up easy access through ground balls or diagonals, allowing Spurs to expose their visitors and progress the ball.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Bentancur regularly joining in with marauding runs from midfield, this added an extra layer of threat. Another significant feature of Tottenham&#8217;s left-sided play was the fluid rotations between Bentancur, Udogie and Simons, with each taking turns to hold width, underlap or be central, as they constantly asked questions of Wolves\u2019 defensive structure and forced them into suboptimal adjustments.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1401684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-267x267.png 267w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-200x200.png 200w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-60x60.png 60w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic-40x40.png 40w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28074821\/Spurs-avergage-positions-graphic.png 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Tottenham&#8217;s average positions in frustrating draw against Wolves.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The way Richarlison also dropped deep to connect play in left-sided zones compounded issues for Wolves while elevating Tottenham&#8217;s nuisance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Thomas Frank&#8217;s men channeling a large chunk of their attacks down the left, this allowed Mohammed Kudus freedom on the opposite flank, as they effectively applied the overload to isolate principle. In doing so, the Ghanaian star was able to use his pace, trickery and strength to go at Hugo Bueno and generate some crafty opportunities for the home team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The room available to Kudus was amplified by the relentless running power of Lucas Bergvall, who repeatedly embarked on dangerous surges into the box, which further limited Wolves&#8217; ability to help Bueno in dealing with Kudus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bergvall-s-relentless-energy\">Bergvall\u2019s relentless energy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To expand on Bergvall\u2019s output, his tireless energy, intensity and commitment across all phases of play were crucial aspects of his fine showing. Whether pressing high, harrying opponents in midfield, counter-pressing with ferocity or snapping into challenges, he was a constant menace defensively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, his insatiable appetite to work hard and support his team was evident not just in his stopping efforts but also in attack, where he frequently crashed the box with penetrative raids, attacked crosses with gusto, launched some probing long throws and played some incisive passes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At times he was overzealous, and not everything he tried came off, but Bergvall was forever trying to make things happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the game wore on, however, his influence began to wane, but nonetheless, he once again showed what an asset he can be for Frank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-palhinha-the-hero\">Palhinha the hero<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Palhinha\u2019s second goal in as many matches couldn\u2019t have come at a better time, as he clinched a crucial point in dramatic fashion, on a night where Tottenham were missing a combined 49 goals from last campaign from the likes of Son Heung-min, Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison and Dominic Solanke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lacking a cutting edge against a resolute and well-organised Wolves, that absence of clinical firepower appeared as though it would prove costly. But Palhinha stepped up to underline his immense importance with a sublime strike from just outside the box.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1620\" height=\"1843\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1401685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585.png 1620w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-264x300.png 264w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-900x1024.png 900w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-768x874.png 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-1350x1536.png 1350w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-235x267.png 235w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-176x200.png 176w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-53x60.png 53w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-132x150.png 132w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/09\/28080315\/Palhinha-goal-and-shot-graphic-e1759043747585-35x40.png 35w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1620px) 100vw, 1620px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Palhinha rescued a point for Spurs with a stunning strike at the death.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>But the unlikely hero&#8217;s match was about more than just a single moment of magic; he won 10 of his 11 duels, made five tackles, completed three successful headers and chimed in with three vital possession recoveries in the middle third.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His impact extended into attacking areas too, where he completed three passes into the final third, took two shots and drew two fouls to round off a spirited performance that blended intelligence, physicality, finesse and composure when it mattered most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following this unsatisfactory result, Frank will now shift his focus to Spurs\u2019 next clash with Bodo\/Glimt in the Champions League, where he\u2019ll be looking for a much-improved outing from his troops.
