‘The best attacking duo there is’. On the 14th (Korean time), German Sport 1 introduced the combination of two strikers Son Heung-min (28) and Harry Kane (27) from Tottenham, who defeated the English Premier League of professional football.
Premier League Season 12 Goals Joint Venture
1 goal up to the most joint goals in a single season
4 goals approaching the record
Duo’s remaining task wins the EPL
The two joined the first goal at Crystal Palace in the 12th round of the 2020-21 Premier League season held at Selhurst Park in London, England. In the 23rd minute of the first half, Son Heung-min pushed the ball in front of the penalty goal with a surprising 30-meter mid-range shot from Kane’s forehand. They are two consecutive games after Arsenal’s 11th matchday (# 10, 11) on Day 7, and it is their 12th league goal this season. Sport 1 added: “They are Heung-min and Kane, in perfect harmony, they are the scoring guarantees of Tottenham manager José Mourinho.”
The combination of Son Heung-min and Kane brought the record for most combined goals in a single season in the Premier League by one goal. First place is 13 goals (1994-95 season) from legendary English striker Alan Shearer and Chris Sutton (retired, later Blackburn). Son Heung-min-Kane has a strong scoring rhythm with one goal per game. This trend is expected to break the Shearer-Sutton record as soon as before the year passes. Tottenham’s league schedule this season has 26 games to play.
The record for the most joint goals in the Premier League career was also in line of sight. Heung-min Son and Kane have scored 32 goals (second place) in the match against Crystal Palace in the 2015-16 season when Son Heung-min joined Tottenham. Thierry Henry-Roberpires (retired, ex Arsenal) and Sergio Agüero-David Silva (ex Manchester City, more than 29 goals), known as the ‘legendary combination’, were defeated early. He followed Didier Drogba-Frank Lampard (retired, ex Chelsea) with the most of 36 goals for four goals. The official Premier League website says: “Son Heung-min is the second-place scorer and Kane is the first-place striker in assists. If it’s the current trend (one goal per game), the Son Heung-min-Kane combination will set a new record for the most joint goals in his career this season. ”
The Son Heung-min-Kane combination has become ‘complete’ this season. The deciding factor is that goalkeeper Kane, who twice beat the Premier League’s top scorer (seasons 2015 ~ 16, 16 ~ 17), was transformed into a ‘special assistant’. In the previous four seasons, Son Heung-min was Kane’s assistant. Twenty goals were collaborated, and Kane scored 13 goals as Son Heung-min’s assistant.
As the controls of the rival defense became more intense, Kane changed his style of play. He became a playmaker and focused on assists rather than goals. Of the 12 goals this season, 8 were scored by Son Heung-min with the help of Kane. Kane ranks first in the league with 10 assists (9 goals), and Son Heung-min is second to score with 10 goals (4 assists). Commentator Han Joon-hee said, “Kane has adapted perfectly to the new style of play. When Son Heung-min and Kane exchange passes, it leads to a goal. It deserves to be the best combination in the league. ”
It is still too early to be happy. An important task remains for the Son Heung-min-Kane combination to become the “strongest in history”. It is a championship. Famous attacking combinations such as Shearer-Sutton (1994-95 season), Drogba-Lampford (2004-06 season, 09-10 season) and Henry-Pirès (01-02 season, 03-04 season) won the Premier title. League. .
Tottenham drew 1-1 with Crystal Palace despite the performances of Son Heung-min and Kane. Second, Liverpool also drew 1-1 with Fulham, helping Tottenham (25 points and +14 goals) maintain the lead. Liverpool (25 points, +9 goals) and the points are an uncomfortable advantage in the gap between draw and goals.
Finally, the next match is a match between first and second place. Tottenham will play Liverpool in matchday 13 of the league on the 17th. It is Son Heung-min and Kane’s first game of the season that needs a winning trophy, and it is the best setting to show your breath. The Premier League posted on the website, “Shearer-Sutton even won the championship with the best of breath. This is also good news for Son Heung-min-Kane Combi, who is about to register a new joint goal. “Commissioner Joon-Hee Han said:” In the Premier League, the combination of a period of time has helped not only to win a lot of goals but also to win. He stressed that for Son Heung-min and Kane to become the best combination ever, winning or not this season will be an important criterion. ”
