Wolves twice came from behind to win 3-2 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Steven Bergwijn and Serge Aurier twice gave Spurs the lead, but Wolves hit back each time as Matt Doherty and Diogo Jota levelled before Raul Jimenez scored the winner.
It was a result that saw Wolves leapfrog Tottenham into sixth as Mourinho’s side lost a third game in a row in all competitions.
Jose Mourinho believes Tottenham were punished for being “too nice”. “They had the correct mentality and I think we were punished,” Mourinho said.
