Son Heung-min tied for second place in scoring with his 12th EPL goal, scoring attack points in three consecutive games ahead of the Asian Cup


Son Heung-min (Tottenham), a leading striker in Korean soccer, gave fans a big gift by setting off a congratulatory fire starting from the first day of the new year in 2024.


Son Heung-min scored a goal in the 20th round of the 2023-2024 English Professional Football Premier League (EPL) against Bournemouth held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England at 11 pm (Korean time) on the 31st.


Tottenham escaped the shock of their defeat against Brighton with a 3-1 win.


Son Heung-min, who played full-time as a left-wing attacker, scored an additional goal in the 26th minute of the second half with a 1-0 lead by connecting Lo Celso's pass with a wonderful left-footed shot.


After scoring against Everton on December 24 last year, he scored his 12th league goal in two games.


He is tied for second in EPL scoring along with Dominic Solanke (Bournemouth) and Mohamed Salah (Liverpool). The leader is Erling Holland (Manchester City) with 14 goals.


In addition, he successfully hunted for attack points in three consecutive games, including the assist against Brighton on the 29th.


Ahead of joining the national team participating in the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup, he showed off his heightened attacking sense, raising the expectations of coach Jurgen Klinsmann (Germany).


Tottenham succeeded in taking the lead with Pape Sar's first goal 9 minutes into the game.


However, Sarr was replaced due to injury in the 30th minute of the first half. Sar left the ground in tears.


Tottenham ended the first half with a 1-0 lead.


Son Heung-min, who was eagerly aiming for Bournemouth's goal, came forward as the solution in the 26th minute of the second half. He quickly penetrated behind the opponent's defense line, caught Loro's long pass, and scored an additional goal with a left-footed shot following the breakthrough.


There was a lot of rain and the ground was slippery, but we hit from a difficult angle. The ball left Son Heung-min's foot and hit Bournemouth's right goal post before hitting the net.


Tottenham gained momentum and took the win with Richarlison scoring the third goal in the 35th minute of the second half. He rushed in a pass from Brennan Johnson from the right side and only changed direction lightly.


Alex Scott scored a consolation goal for Bournemouth in the 39th minute of the second half, but it was not enough to catch up to the 3-goal gap.


Tottenham narrowed the point gap with 4th place Arsenal (40 points) to 1 with 12 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses (39 points). At the same time, Arsenal lost 1-2 to Fulham.


Son Heung-min left his team for a while after the game that day and joined Klinsmann.


They will compete in the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup, which opens on the 12th, and challenge to become the top team for the first time in 64 years.


He finished his warm-up by scoring a valuable goal ahead of the second largest major tournament after the World Cup. 토토사이트
