There was a match aftereffect. Son Heung-min started up front once again, but he was a little heavy.
Son “Captain” Heung-min (Tottenham) started and played the full 80 minutes of the 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) fifth round match against Sheffield United at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, on Sunday (Sept. 17). He had one shot on target. In the 21st minute, Hoopsim’s right-footed shot from the right side of the penalty area, the “Son Heung-min zone,” was saved by the opposing goalkeeper. After that, Tottenham found it difficult to break through their dense defense.
Despite the pressure, Tottenham conceded a goal in the 28th minute through Gustavo Hamer. The big break came in the 53rd minute of the second half in stoppage time.바카라
Substitute Thierry Henry equalized with a header, and two minutes later, Dejan Kulicepski scored the winner from a Henry pass. Spurs came from behind to win 2-1 and extend their winning streak to four games.
It’s the first time in 57 years since the 1966-1967 season that Spurs have 13 points (4 wins, 1 draw) in their opening five games. Spurs remained in second place behind Man City (15-5 W-L).
Hoopscore.com gave Son Heung-min the lowest Tottenham rating of 6. Footmob also gave him a lowly 6.3. Football London gave him the lowest rating of 6, saying he “couldn’t find a way through the center.
Still, leadership shone through. After Kulusebski’s miraculous goal, he ran off the bench to celebrate with his teammates. Even after the game, the team’s camaraderie was on full display as they led a round of applause for their best comeback performance.
After the game, Son Heung-min said, “It’s great to come from behind like this. But I think we will think about how we can finish the game earlier. The players who came on as substitutes did a great job. It’s definitely something that will help the team perform well in the future.” “I’ll have a light flight home, but I’ll definitely analyze my performance. I think I’m always the first one to see the things I’m disappointed with rather than the things I’m happy with. When I think about the game as a team, I’m definitely lighthearted, but I think it’s a game that makes me think about how I can help the team more,” he said.
On his goal and assist, he said, “I felt better than when I scored. In fact, I heard that he’s had a pretty tough time since last week, so I felt for him even more. He was unlucky because he has a lot of talent. I felt bad for him that he was blaming himself for not playing well because he was out of form.” “His teammates were also happy to see him play. He was very happy, too. If he can get better at these things in the future, I think it will help the team a lot.”
Tottenham’s next opponent is the ‘nemesis’ Arsenal. Tottenham will face their ‘North London’ rivals away from home on the 24th.
