Wolves chances of another campaign in Europe have been bolstered as they moved to within three points of the top four in the Premier League.Nuno Santo's side came out on top in a five-goal thriller at Spurs thanks to Raul Jimenez's 73rd-minute winner.And former England striker turned presenter Gary Lineker was full of praise for the west Midlands outfit. He even made a light-hearted joke about the number of matches they have had to endure this campaign.He tweeted:

Wolves' competitive season began before any other team in the top-flight as they had to go through a gruelling qualification campaign to make the Europa League group stages, now they are in the last 16 of the competition.
