Match Report
Joao Palhinha poked in a late winner for Tottenham as they picked up their first Premier League victory of 2026 in a 1-0 win at Wolves that gives them hope of survival.
It was a dramatic finale at Molineux even after the substitute put Spurs in front as Everton equalised against West Ham to briefly lift Roberto De Zerbi's team out of the relegation zone before Callum Wilson's late winner for the Hammers muted the celebrations somewhat.
But it just made the three points even more important for Tottenham on an afternoon when they lost Dominic Solanke and Xavi Simons to injury. They remain two points behind West Ham but retain hopes of staying in the Premier League - thanks to Palhinha.
