LONDON - Tottenham Hotspur sank to a third successive Premier League defeat as first-half goals by Raúl Jiménez and Leander Dendoncker gave Wolverhampton Wanderers a 2-0 away win to lift them into seventh place on Sunday.
After losing 3-2 at home to Southampton in midweek, Tottenham desperately needed a response to boost their top-four ambitions, but defensive errors cost them dear.
Wolverhampton viajó a Londres y le arruinó la tarde a los aficionados del Tottenham, logrando una vital victoria para sus sueños europeos. Uno de los goles del triunfo vino en los pies de Raúl Jiménez, quien de este modo silenció las críticas que comenzaban a aparecer ante su falta de efectividad en la temporada 2021-22.
At this point it's one of the most outrageous traditions in all of sports — Manchester City hosts Manchester United in Women's Super League play and City midfielder Caroline Weir scores a contender for the Puskás Award.
It all began in 2019 when, in the inaugural WSL Manchester derby, Weir lashed a 25-yard rocket into the far corner to the delight of 31,213 at the Etihad.
If you played soccer in an American high school, then you are well familiarized with the slander that comes to soccer players.

After a chaotic final day of the 2020-21 EFL Championship campaign — during which Derby County was relegated, safe, relegated, then finally safe again, all within the space of 90 minutes — the Rams had secured their status as a Championship side.
At least that's what the final table said. The club still awaited judgment from the EFL regarding serious breaches of financial fair play regulations. In the end, the Rams were spared a points deduction and stayed in the second tier.
West Ham United's Michail Antonio questioned the logic of people asking for teammate Kurt Zouma to be "sacked" after a video emerged of Zouma abusing his cats, with the striker asking if what the Frenchman did was worse than those guilty of racism.
LONDON — West Ham United player Kurt Zouma's cats are being cared for by animal charity the RSPCA after a video emerged showing the Frenchman kicking one pet across the floor, and Vitality said it was suspending its sponsorship of the Premier League club over its handling of the incident.
Every league has that one team that isn't really all that good but just seems to hang around for far longer than they should. They don't spend much, they don't play entertaining football, and they never really win any big games. Yet when the season ends, they are always mid-table.
In the 2010s, that team in England was Wigan Athletic, as Roberto Martínez's brand of "Guerilla Soccer" kept an underfunded Latics side in the Premier League for eight years.
