Wolves stun high-flying Spurs, Fulham and Cardiff grab late wins
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 29 - 12 - 2018

Tottenham Hotspur suffered a setback in their final game of the year, conceding three goals in 18 second-half minutes to lose 3-1 to Wolverhampton Wanderers and blow the chance to put pressure on Liverpool at the top of the Premier League.
With the leaders playing later on Saturday, second-placed Spurs hoped to cut the gap to three points but were hit by strikes from Wily Boly, Raul Jimenez and Helder Costa as Wembley was silenced, along with talk of Tottenham's title challenge.
Struggling Cardiff City and Fulham bolstered their survival chances with added-time goals in 1-0 wins at Leicester City and home to Huddersfield Town respectively.
Brighton & Hove Albion beat Everton by the same score and Watford equalised late to draw 1-1 with Newcastle United.
The day could hardly have started better for Spurs with England's Harry Kane marking his award of an MBE for services to sport in the New Year Honours list with a stunning left-foot strike that looked likely to kick off another goalfest.
But the inconsistent visitors from the Midlands refused to roll over and always looked a danger before Boly began the comeback with a powerful header after 72 minutes.
MITROVIC WINNER
The drama came even later at Fulham where Aleksandar Mitrovic scored the winner in injury time to frustrate their relegation rivals Huddersfield.
Fulham's joy was all the greater because they had earlier missed a penalty amid extraordinary scenes after their players tried to take the ball off Aboubakar Kamara as he stepped up to take the spot kick.
His team mates wanted Mitrovic to take the penalty but Kamara refused, disobeying the orders of Fulham manager Claudio Ranieri, only to look deeply embarrassed seconds later when his effort was saved by Jonas Lossl.
At Leicester, Cardiff's Neil Etheridge saved James Maddison's 75th minute penalty to set up a victory secured by Victor Camarasa's stunning injury-time strike for the Welsh side, who are now four points above the drop zone.
Brighton finish the year comfortably in mid-table after Jurgen Locadia's second-half goal was enough to see off Everton. At Vicarage Road, the sought-after substitute Abdoulaye Doucoure scored Watford's equaliser before then wasting a late chance as the home side almost secured a comeback win.
The Frenchman, who has been widely tipped to secure a move in the Janaury transfer window, had come off the bench in the second half after Salomon Rondon had given Newcastle the lead with his fifth goal in eight league games.
