The only clear "Spurs" chance in the first 45 minutes came from Harry Kane, whose clever header after Ivan Perisic's pass was saved by Jose Sa.
In the second half, "Tottenham" switched to a higher gear. Dejan Kulusevski created serious chances for his teammates, one of which saw H. Kane's header shake the goalpost. However, the London team's leader managed to score on his third attempt. The 29-year-old Englishman accurately headed the ball into the net after an original pass from Perisic.

In the end, the hosts secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory. Conte's team briefly climbed to the top of the league table after this victory, while the "Wolves" remain with 1 point.
