Ange Postecoglou said some of his Tottenham players slipped into self-preservation mode after they squandered the chance to reclaim top spot in the Premier League in a second defeat in six days. He acknowledged his side “ran out of steam” at Wolves after failing to build on Brennan Johnson’s opener.
Wolves scored twice in second-half stoppage time to record an impressive comeback win, with Pablo Sarabia, a second-half substitute, and Mario Lemina rendering Johnson’s first Tottenham goal in effect a footnote.
