'Son National'Son National'Son Heung-min (Tottenham)'s Everton multi-goal in the second round of the league is a definite answer to the recent untimely criticism.
Son Heung-min started in the second round of the English Premier League (EPL) of the 2024-2025 season against Everton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 25th (Korea time) and shot a magic wand in the 25th minute of the first half.
Son Heung-min, who had been criticized by some British media for his poor performance in the opening match against Leicester City, replaced the injured 'Club Record' Dominic Solanke as a front-line striker and paid off.
Tottenham manager Engie Postecoglou put Son Heung-min at the top and placed Brennan Johnson and 'transfer life'Wilson O'Doubert as strikers on both sides. Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison and Yves Bissouma set up the three-middle. Pedro Porro, Christian Romero, Mickey Panderpen and Destiny Udogi were in charge of the four-back, while Guillermo Vicario defended the goal.
In the 25th minute of the first half, when Yves Bissouma's fantastic mid-range artillery led 1-0, Son Heung-min ran quickly toward Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, who received a back pass. The British public broadcaster 'BBC' reported that it ran about 30 yards (about 28 meters), which is not short.
Pickford, who caught the ball, probably didn't feel Son Heung-min's approach. He was relaxed to kick the ball slightly to the left for the kick with his left foot which is 'Pot'. At this time, Son Heung-min took the ball away and calmly kicked it toward the empty goal.
It was a score created by Son Heung-min's sincerity, who silently carried out the unique forward pressure mission of 'NGBALL' from the beginning of the game.

Son quickly scored his first goal in his second game since the opening of the season. Throughout his personal career, he is the fastest since the winning goal against Manchester City in the opening game of the 2021-2022 season. In the 2020-2021 season, he also scored his first goal of the season in the second round, but the scoring time was 2 minutes of added time in the first half.
From the 2015-2016 season, Son Heung-min scored his first goal of the season in the 6th round, 4th round, 9th round, 13th round, 5th round, 2nd round, 1st round, 8th round. Including this season, he shot a magic wanderer in an average of 5.4 rounds. It's faster than average this season.
Son Heung-min scored his team's fourth goal and his second goal in the 32nd minute of the second half when Christian Romero was leading 3-0 in the 26th minute of the second half. In the counterattack situation, center back Mickey Panderpen was handed the ball to the left and cut the net with a calm left-footed shot in front of the gate. Like a 'two-footer', he pierced the net with his right foot and left foot, respectively. Son Heung-min and Panderpen received 9.1 points, the highest score in the game based on the statistics company 'HuscoordCom'.
With multiple goals on the day, he has built a goal-scoring tower for 10 consecutive EPL seasons. Up until last season, he has scored 4, 14, 12, 12, 11, 17, 23, 10, and 17 goals, respectively. He has gone beyond double-digit scores for eight consecutive seasons and has been on a good track to achieve a record for nine consecutive seasons.
The record of hat tricks for the first five consecutive seasons of the EPL was postponed to the next opportunity. In the past four seasons, Son Heung-min has exploded hat tricks one after another against Burnley (three goals) on September 2, 2023, Leicester City (three goals), Aston Villa (three goals) on April 9, 2022, and Southampton (four goals) on September 20, 2020.

The number of individual EPL scorers increased to 122 goals (305 games), beating over Steven Gerrard (120 goals) and Romelu Lukaku (121 goals, AS Roma). 21st place in scoring alone. He is one goal shy of "Manchester United Travel Legend" Dwight Yorke (retired) and Raheem Sterling (Chelsea, 123 goals) who caused a "statement wave".
Tottenham, which drew 1-1 away from Leicester, a promotion team in the opening match, won its first win of the season with a score of 4-0 thanks to Son Heung-min's multi-goal in the second game. Tottenham manager Engie Postecoglou left Son Heung-min on the pitch until the end, although the game was already virtually decided in the middle of the second half. You can see the trust in Son Heung-min.
