In fact, Tottenham were lucky not to lose the game when Fabio Silva wasted a key chance in the 95th minute to win it for Wolves.
Mourinho claimed that the problem stemmed from a lack of ambition and danger (Jonathan Veal): “We had control of the game but we had 89 minutes to score more goals and we didn’t. It was not about scoring more goals, it was about not being dangerous or being ambitious.
