Maybe what's being missed here is that we are choosing to deliberately add conflict between Gothmog and Sauron that is not present in the published book (we have to create a lot of stuff). This should be one of the least contentious creations I'd think, since allied bad guys scheming against each other while simultaneously working toward the same goals is a normal trope.
Since Gothmog meets his end at Gondolin, it seems fitting that perhaps Sauron has a hand in it. Keep in mind that the fall of Gondolin ultimately leads to the victory of the good guys, so it's not like a short term win for Sauron is anything like victory, even if maybe it looks like it at the time.
