Tottenham Hotspur sank to a third successive Premier League defeat as first-half goals by Raul Jimenez and Leander Dendoncker gave Wolverhampton Wanderers a 2-0 away win to lift them into seventh place on Sunday. After losing 3-2 at home to Southampton in midweek, Tottenham desperately needed a response to boost their top-four ambitions, but defensive errors cost them dear. Jimenez volleyed in after six minutes following a mistake by Tottenham keeper Hugo Lloris and the French World Cup winner hardly covered himself in glory when Dendoncker doubled Wolves' lead 12 minutes later.
