With super poker, Son Heung Min has made history as the first Asian player to score 4 goals in a match in the Premier League and, more broadly, within the top 5 leagues in Europe.
Previously, Asian soccer recorded a single star scoring a hat-trick (3 goals) in a Premier League match. It was Japanese midfielder Shinji Kagawa with 3 goals against Norwich City in 2013 when he wore the MU jersey.
But what is more special, according to Opta statistics, Heung Min’s 4 goals came from the assists of forward Harry Kane. The duo have been together since 2015 and have scored a total of 24 goals, more than any other combination in the same time frame.
The Daily Mail has dedicated words to praise the Tottenham duo, especially the Korean forward: “Southampton are off to a great start and Danny Ings’ goal is a testament. However, Kane and Heung Min stole the entire party. 4 goals in a row come with the same scenario. Kane assists and Son scores. There is no easy ending, but they are all good passes whatever happens.

Meanwhile, expert Jermaine Jenas (former Tottenham player) also praised Son Heung Min after his performance at St Mary’s. “He deserves to be the hero of the match with 4 goals. Southampton made the mistake of leaving too much room for Son. He always has too many opportunities to decide everything. “
Son Heung Min scored 11 goals in 30 games last season. But after only 2 Premier League matches this season, “Ronaldo Korea” has 4 goals.
In addition to winning all 3 points, a 5-2 win over Southampton will be a great spiritual boost for the teachers and coaches José Mourinho. The North London team will host Newcastle in round 3, before the match against MU at Old Trafford in round 4.
