In this game, Son Heung-min scored 9.5 points with a perfect performance of 1 shot and 2 passes, helping Tottenham Hotspur beat his opponent 4-1 and continued to bite Manchester City, who are fourth in the standings. After the game, the Korean media excitedly said that Son Heung-min was the savior of Tottenham.
Due to Kane's departure this summer, Son Heung-min is also expected to become the new captain of Tottenham, and the status of the first brother in Asia is needless to say. However, Tottenham has some meaning of opening high and going low, with 8 wins and 2 draws in the first 10 rounds, but the last 5 rounds are 1 draw and 4 losses, falling directly out of the Champions League zone. In this battle, facing Newcastle, who had just swallowed a heavy defeat, Son Xingmin once again ushered in a big outbreak.
In the 26th minute of the game, Son Heung-min took the ball on the left side and singled out Trippier, a simple acceleration to get rid of, and a direct bottom cross, Udogie did not live up to the captain's good intentions, and hit the net in the middle, and Tottenham broke the deadlock.
You must know that in the past five league rounds, Tottenham Hotspur have been the first to score first, but they have not been able to win all of them. Now that the goal is scored again, many Tottenham fans are worried about a repeat of the tragedy.
It has to be said that Son Heung-min is Tottenham's anchor, in the 38th minute he once again singled out Trippier, he used the rhythm change to stagger, and then sent the ball to the goal, Richarlison pushed the shot, and Tottenham extended the score advantage.
Richarlison was quite excited, it was the first time in his Tottenham career that he scored with his feet, and he hugged Son Heung-min for the first time.
Delivering two assists is far from the limit of Son Heung-min. In the 84th minute, he received a direct pass from a team-mate, tore a hole in the middle, and calmly changed direction in the box, forcing Dubravka to take him to the ground, and the referee pointed to the 12-yard point. Subsequently, Son Xingmin hit a knife and rewrote the score to 4-0!
With 10 Premier League goals this season, Son also became the seventh player in Premier League history to score in double figures in at least eight league seasons, joining legends such as Wayne Rooney, Thierry Henry, Frank Lampard and Sergio Aguero, and the first Asian player to do so.
In addition to 1 goal and 2 assists, Son Heung-min also had 4 shots on goal, 2 on target, 3 dribbling breakthroughs, 7 successful duels in this game, and his post-match rating reached 9.5, and he was undoubtedly elected the best of the game.
