Wolverhampton Wanderers bolstered their chances of again playing in Europe next season after pulling off arguably the result of the weekend on Sunday afternoon.The west Midlands outfit snagged all three points in north London as they edged Tottenham Hotspur in a five-goal thriller, which left fans drooling over the performance of Diogo Jota.Spurs twice held the lead in the first half before Raul Jimenez popped up with the winner in the 73rd minute with a coolly slotted finish.Wolves have now overtaken Jose Mourinho’s men into sixth place to go within just three points of the top four.Jota bagged the second equaliser before he was withdrawn with just over ten minutes to go.Here’s what fans have been saying about the Portuguese winger…
A range of superlatives were used to describe Jota’s stunning display, including “immense” and “outstanding” while one supporter brandished him as an “absolute animal”.
His goal and assist at Spurs took his tally for a total of 21 direct contributions in 35 appearances this term, also his sixth strike in his last three outings, per Transfermarkt.
