Tottenham produced a remarkable late comeback to record their
first Premier League home win of the season as Wolves self-destructed
at White Hart Lane.
The visitors looked set to complete a hat-trick of victories over
Spurs after Steven Fletcher handed them a shock lead on the stroke
of half-time.
Despite dominating, Tottenham were becoming increasingly frustrated
but were gifted an equaliser when Stephen Ward brought down Alan
Hutton in the box and allowed Rafael van der Vaart to level 13 minutes
from time, before substitutes Roman Pavyluchenko and Hutton completed
the turnaround.
Spurs, who handed Robbie Keane his first start for the club since
January and recalled William Gallas, were looking to avoid the kind
of Champions League hangover they suffered when they lost to Wigan
in their previous home game.
