Son Heung-min, who started as a forward on the right side, the same day, and Son Heung-min savored a goal in 5 minutes. When his teammate Tangwi Ndombele launched an errant pass that crossed the defensive line immediately, Son Heung-min received it quickly and dribbled once, then shook the net with a ground shot with his left foot from the left of the penalty.
This goal was of great importance. The team was promoted only to the league leader, and Son Heung-min himself jumped to the top of the league score alone. What was hard to imagine on Son Heung-min’s toes came true.
Son Heung-min, who scored the ninth league goal in three league games after Matchday 6 against Burnley on 27 last month, beat Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), Jamie Bard (Leicester City) and Dominic Calvert-Lewin ( Everton, eight more goals) to score. He took the only leadership position. It is the eleventh goal of this season, including the Europa League of the European Football Federation (UEFA). Furthermore, Son Heung-min once again proved that he is a ‘Man City Killer’ by scoring his sixth career goal against Man City, led by Pep Guardiola.
Tottenham scored 3 points thanks to Son Heung-min’s opening goal and Giovanni Rosselso’s extra goal in the 20th minute of the second half. After losing in the opening match, Tottenham continued their unbeaten run for eight consecutive league matches, scoring 6 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss and 20 points, beating Chelsea and Leicester City (over 18 points) to become the sole leader of the the league.
Just two days ago, it was unclear whether Son Heung-min even participated in the Manchester City match. Son Heung-min joined the national team that went to Austria during match A in November. However, Corona 19 confirmed 7 players from the national team. Even Hwang Hee-chan (Leipzig), who scored the first goal against Qatar, was positive. Son Heung-min, who hugged Hwang Hee-chan and was delighted with it, of course he was worried.
As soon as match A ended, Tottenham sent a letter from their club to Austria for a ‘Son Heung-min airborne operation’. After completing the Qatari war, Son Heung-min returned to London by charter. It was a cross section to see how important Tottenham value Son Heung-min. Upon arriving in London, Son Heung-min received a diagnostic test by Tottenham Club and it came back negative. Son Heung-min, Tottenham and Korean football had to erase their shocked hearts.
Heung-min Son did not spare his body despite not having 100% stamina after running full time in two A matches held over two days. He responded with a goal to the sincerity and consideration of the team. After scoring the goal, he unfolded an “ airplane ceremony ” with his own unique “ camera ceremony ” with open arms, expressing his gratitude for the club who signed himself.
In fact, that day, Tottenham struggled with Man City’s wave attack. In terms of market share, it lagged significantly behind with 33.9% versus 66.1%. The number of shots was also unilaterally increased to 4-22. However, the outcome of the match was exactly the opposite. Of the four shots Tottenham recorded, only two were effective and all ended in goals. One of them was Son Heung-min’s first goal. His ‘one shot, one kill’ ability is shaking up the entire league.
In a post-match interview, Son Heung-min handed the ball to a colleague and said: “Thanks to the dedication and sacrifice of my teammates, I was able to score a goal.” British public broadcaster BBC praised “Son Heung-min is the best goalkeeper in the Premier League this season”, and Britain’s “Sporting Life” said: “Son Heung-min is the most advanced forward.”
Son Heung-min was selected as ‘King of the Party’ by the EPL Secretariat. On ‘King of the Match’, which is decided by fan vote, Son Heung-min received 80.2% support.
