That header was exquisite, the keeper left with no chance, but the woodwork saved the Wolves.The same happened some ten minutes later as Kulusevski provided Son this time with a perfect pass, and the South Korean was slightly off the target.Goal!⚽️Tottenham 1-0 WolvesHarry Kane 64′ pic.twitter.com/VfcanyPZmJ— Lørd Bêë (@_LordBee_) August 20, 2022 And then – third time charm.
