Intense competition from EPL, Son Heung-min’s ‘only shot’ needed for Tottenham

(Seoul = News 1) Reporter Do-yong Kim = The competition for the lead of the first season of the English Premier League (EPL) is fierce. Tottenham are in the lead, followed by Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City, including ‘defending champion’ Liverpool. Tottenham, aiming for the top of the EPL in 60 years, needs a shot from Son Heung-min to continue the competition.

Tottenham will play the 12th round of the 2020-21 EPL with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park in London, UK at 11:15 pm on the 13th.

Tottenham, who are undefeated (7 wins and 3 draws) for 10 consecutive matches after losing to Everton (0-1), came second with 24 points and +14 goals in Liverpool (7 wins, 3 draws, 1 loss , 24 points, goals He’s leading the way in goals with +9).

As Tottenham must score 3 points against Crystal Palace to continue the fierce competition for the vanguard, expectations for Son Heung-min are sure to be high.

Son Heung-min has established himself as the best forward in the league this season. He has already scored 10 goals and is second only in the scorer category. Only one goal was scored by leader Dominic Calbert-Lewin (Everton, 11 goals).

In particular, Son Heung-min scored a goal and an assist in the match against Arsenal on Day 7, leading a complete 2-0 victory. Son Heung-min’s score on this day was a wonderful goal that left everyone speechless.

Son Heung-min, who tried the goal against Arsenal and increased his scoring power again, was substituted in the second half of the UEFA Europa League game against Royal Antwerp (Belgium) on the 11th. He ran for about 33 minutes and it was intimidating, attempting two hard shots.

Heung-min Son, who played 30 minutes during the weeknight game, saving energy and maintaining a sense of the game, is now challenging two straight league goals against Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace is a team with good memories for Son Heung-min. After moving to Tottenham in 2015, Son Heung-min scored the EPL’s first goal by scoring a beastly goal in his second EPL match against Crystal Palace.

Since then, Son Heung-min has scored 5 goals in 9 matches against Crystal Palace, showing a good performance with more than 1 goal in 2 matches. That’s why we hope Son Heung-min scores in this game too.

So far, if Son Heung-min, who has scored 98 goals in all competitions in a Tottenham uniform, scored two goals in the match, he would also set a record 100 goals after the transfer to Tottenham.
