27 goals in 32 Premier League games! Son Heung-min, a brother in Asian football: It may change the fate of the 4 giants

With a wonderful no-ball run and a push in front of goal, Son Heung-min scored his 20th non-penalty goal in the Premier League this season. In the past two years (including this season), if you don't count penalty points, Son Heung-min is the first person in the Premier League's top scorer list.

Although it was only a 1-1 draw taken from Liverpool's home stadium, it also ensured that Tottenham's point difference with Arsenal was within one win. In the next round of the North London derby, Spurs will at least control the initiative to compete for a Place in the Champions League.

Of course, Manchester City does not have to rush to thank Tottenham Hotspur, after all, liverpool have taken 2 points this season, and Guardiola's team is grainless.

01. 27 goals in 32 Premier League games! Son Heung-min's shooting efficiency is really too high

a. A goal worth thousands of dollars: not just eating pie in front of goal

The goal at Anfield was Son's 20th goal since 32 Premier League games this season, and he also had seven assists to bring 27 straight goals.

That statistic also tied his personal best record set last season (goals + assists = 27 goals), but Son Xingyu used 37 games at the time and had a great chance of achieving a new breakthrough this season.

The source of the goal came from the unsuccessful counter-attack led by Son Heung-min, Sessegnon had already stepped forward and right wing-back Emerson went straight to the left to control the second penalty.

The subsequent attack was launched, and Emerson did not leave, directly receiving a pass from the goalkeeper and then a long pass to find Kane. The latter cut inside with the ball, Son Heung-min's no-ball movement was important, taking away the defender to give Kane enough space, and finally receiving Aceñon's cross in front of goal easily broke the goal.

In the current Premier League top scorer list, Salah, who is no. 1, has 5 goals from penalties, and C Ronaldo in 3rd place has also scored 3 goals from penalties, only Son Heung-min's 20 goals are "dry goods".

In addition, in terms of goal conversion rate, Son Heung-min is the highest, reaching 26.67%. Of the top 20 goalscorers, only 3 have a shooting chance of more than 20%, of which Zaha, who is stuck in the line, 5 of the 13 goals come from penalties (the chance of shooting without the penalty is very low).

b. Son Heung-min, who has amazing shooting skills: Eating cake and eating steadily is a good striker

Son Heung-min's goals this season have two key words: sprinting and eating cake. Tottenham Hotspur is a team that attaches great importance to counter-attacking, and Son Heung-min, as the arrow of the team, often gets a lot of good opportunities.

He is fast, good at positioning, has a high rate of wrapping up, and has a reliable shot, so he scores one goal after another. In particular, the winter window brought in Kulusevsky, the former Juve attacker who played the role of half Kane, making Son Xingyu eat cake more joyfully.

Spurs' attack and defense transitions are quick, especially after Romero's return, the fierce defender further enhances Tottenham's backfield hardness.

This time it was still Kulousevsky's assist, Son Heung-min's running position was called a perfect score, and the final shot was completed with a left foot.

Son Heung-min's 20 goals came from inside the box, 18 of them. He is when the team launches a counterattack, in time to wrap up in place and accurately send the ball to the bottom of the net.

As can be seen from Son Heung-min's top 17 goals, the expected number of goals is only 7.26, but his actual number of goals is almost 10 more!

You must know that even if it is to eat cake, it is not a 100% chance, but Sun Xingyu's super efficiency makes his counterattack more terrible.

02. Premier League All-Time Best Strike Partner: Kane makes a wedding dress for Son Heung-min

a. Best Partner: Son Heung-min and Kane assist each other 39 times

Just this season, Son and Kane have made 39 assists to each other, surpassing the duo of Drogba and Lampard to become the most tacit partner in Premier League history.

Among them, Son Heung-min delivered 20 assists for Kane, and Kane returned 19 times, which is also the most average pair in history.

After the opponent focuses on cutting off the direct connection between Kane and Son Heung-min, they will also "match" through a third teammate, which can be Kulusevsky or a wing-back.

Many people will think that Sun Xingyu's goal is to eat cake, but in fact, the opportunity is completely Sun Xingyu's own running, to some extent, Sun Xingyu is his own "assist" himself.

The key point was that after Kane took the ball, Son Heung-min's forward insertion took away the defender, allowing Kane to smoothly cut inside the middle. Then with the goal of Sesseignon, Son Heung-min let himself come to an unguarded position and finally scored with ease.

Of course, Kane doesn't necessarily have every pass in place, and this time on the counter-attack, Kane's direct plug is small. If he could have given the ball speed faster at that time, Son Xingyu might even have accelerated directly to run out of a single knife.

Son Heung-min, who had to slow down, held the ball forward and then sent a wonderful pass to Ben Davis who was inserted in the back, but unfortunately his teammates flew away and missed the opportunity to kill.

The terrible thing about Sun Kai's combination is that both of them have good passing ability. Kane's direct search for Son Heung-min after receiving the ball in the mid-circle is the first step in the starting speed, and if Kane's pass is short, Son Heung-min can also receive the ball and organize it twice.

This time Son Heung-min crossed to Hoybel, who was unguarded in the middle of the road, and the latter's long-range shot hit the upright with some pity.

b. Kane passes longer: Son Heung-min gallops the horse

The combination of Son Heung-min and Kane has a characteristic, and the passing line between them will be longer than that of other partners.

In particular, Kane's assists to Son Heung-min are often accelerated direct plugs or even long passes.

Kulousevsky's appearance is important, his ball quotient is much better than Lucas Jr., and his role is the same as Lucas Jr., providing propulsion, receiving, becoming a connection point between Kane and Son Xingyu, or shortening the distance between Kane and Son Xingyu.

This time Kulusevsky passed the ball, Kane got the ball and directly inserted it into the depth of space, but unfortunately it was slightly larger, and Son Xingyu failed to hold it in the first place.

Because Son has a speed advantage, he is now the one who leads the way in Tottenham's counter-attack. The round before Tottenham's goal was also precisely because of Son Heung-min's counter-attack, which brought the overall formation forward.

Although Son's shot was blocked after half-time this time, Tottenham's overall formation was able to bounce back and lay the foundation for the goal behind.

Sun Xingyu has speed, so it is reliable to let him advance suddenly. However, Sun Xingyu's ability to pass is not very strong (the dribbling speed is still quite fast), so if the ball is broken when breaking through, it is necessary to pay attention to the reception and control of the second point.

This time Hoybyle got the ball to Kane, and Son Heung-min ran far away without the ball for the second time, which was one of his advantages.

It can be clearly seen from the GIF that Hoybel suddenly stepped forward to steal the ball, and then Son Heung-min took the ball and accelerated forward. After the South Korean star was cut off, Hoybel took the ball back and passed it to Kane.

The latter took the flank cross, and Son Xingyu almost wrapped it in place, but was defused by Alisson's attack. Bentankur, who followed, fired long-range shots and failed to create much of a threat.

Under Tottenham's current attacking system, it is very good to let Son Heung-min as an acceleration point. Because he can dribble, he can also pass, and more importantly, after the first wave of failures, Son Xingyu also has a strong secondary movement ability, and he is very efficient in front of goal.

Is it fortuitous that 32 Premier League games contributed 20 goals and 7 assists? Son Heung-min deserves the title of the first person in the history of Asian football.

03. Change your life against the sky? Because of him, the outlook of the 4 giants has changed

a. On the way to the Premier League title race: Manchester City win the advantage

Because of Son Heung-min's goal, Liverpool shared with Manchester City in one more game and lost the initiative to compete for the title.

Considering the relative ease of Manchester City's follow-up fixtures, it is really not easy for Liverpool to close the gap of 1 goal.

Liverpool, which has four titles in their goal this season, failed to defend Son's speed at home, which may leave some regrets in this passionate season.

Spurs are not points lost: the next North London derby has the initiative

Compared to Liverpool's chagrin after the draw, Spurs are quite satisfied with such a result. Because they, like Liverpool, are all equal to their rivals, but Spurs have a chance to remedy it.

The next round of the Premier League will be the much-anticipated North London derby, which will also directly determine the ticket to next season's Champions League.

Even if Arsenal win this round, Spurs can complete the comeback as long as they win at home. After all, Tottenham's goal difference advantage is obvious, and the initiative is at their feet.

Conclusion:

Once talking about Son Heung-min, we would say that he is a brother in Asia, and gradually, he has become the strongest in the history of Asian football. Now Son is hitting the Premier League Golden Boot and moving towards higher heights.

After all, he scored not just a goal that could change the fate of the four giants, but in this season's Premier League, he created 27 goals and a set of tactics that belonged to him and Kane.
