Mother bird’ Son Heung-min (31, Tottenham) eagerly bit the food
but the Tottenham chicks couldn’t chew and swallow properly.
Tottenham defeated Manchester United 20-2023 in the second round of the 24-2 Premier League season at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London
England on the 2th.
After drawing 0-2 with Brentford in their season opener
Tottenham earned their first win of the season.
It was no exaggeration to say that it was a victory made by the leadership and sacrifice of captain Son Heung-min.
After Harry Kane’s absence
Tottenham’s goalscoring prowess proved to be at a serious level.
Richarlison has been at the forefront for two consecutive games
but he has seen a decidedly less weight than Harry Kane.
Son Heung-min
wearing the captain’s armband
created several decisive chances
but the frustrating scene of his teammates failing to score a goal was repeated over and over again.
There was no player like Kane who could match Son Heung-min perfectly on the counter-attack and finish the goal.
In the 25th minute of the first half 먹튀검증사이트
Son Heung-min had a chance.
On the counter-attack
Son Heung-min
who dribbled down the left flank
got past a defender and laid out a pass.
Kulusevski connected on a shot
but it was caught by goalkeeper Onana.
Son Heung-min put in a good cross from the left flank in the 37th minute of the first half.
However
the chance was squandered when Richarlison
who was supposed to receive the ball, fell in a tussle.
In the 40th minute of the first half
Porro also took the ball away from Son Heung-min with a decisive shot
but it hit the crossbar.
The ball bounced off Richarlison connected with a scissor kick
but his foot ricocheted through the air.
Son Heung-min
who had no shots in the first half
fired a converted right-footed shot in the 16th minute of the second half
but it was blocked by Shaw’s legs.
Unfortunately
the first goal of the season did not come out.
After Richarlison was replaced
Son Heung-min stepped up to the top of the order.
He played full-time regardless of position
but unfortunately he did not score a goal.
Tottenham’s first win was made at the expense of Son Heung-min.
Son Heung-min focused on saving his teammates rather than attacking individually.
It was the reason for Son Heung-min’s low number of shots.
However
Richarlison
who should keep pace
is in an extremely sluggish situation.
In the second half, when Richarlison was left out and Son Heung-min stepped up to the top of the table, Tottenham’s performance came alive.
As captain, Son made personal sacrifices for the team’s great victory.
However, if his teammates can’t match his level as he is now, Son Heung-min’s individual performance this season will not be satisfactory.
