Sep 22, 2024

[Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (London, England) = This is a reporter for Sports Chosun.COM] It was the moment when the pass came in from behind. Son Heung-min sprinted. I dug into the back space. The defense caught up. glimpses the other side. And he gave away the correct pass. James Maddison scored a crucial goal. Son Heung-min looked at this scene silently. It was a heart-wrenching moment.

Tottenham came from behind to beat Brentford 3-1. On the afternoon of the 21st (local time), he won the fifth round of the English Premier League (EPL) against Brentford in the 2024-2025 season at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.

It was an important match for Tottenham. He fell into a slump of one win, one draw and two losses in four league games. In the Carabao Cup held during the week, he also struggled against Coventry City in the second division. It was only a 2-1 victory.

There was considerable criticism. He shook coach Engie Postecoglou. There were also criticisms of Son Heung-min, the captain of the team. It was a must-win game.

It was twisted from the beginning. Twenty-two seconds into the first half, Brentford striker Mbjömo scored. A dark shadow cast over Tottenham.

Tottenham scored an equalizer in the eighth minute of the first half. Madison's shot came off goalkeeper Flecken. Solanke scored a goal. The mood was renewed by tying the game in a short time.

Son Heung-min was struggling. I was exhausted. Played full time against Newcastle on 1 September. Since then, he played full-time as the captain of the national team in Muscat, Seoul and Oman. As soon as he returned, he played a North London derby with Arsenal. a 0-1 defeat. It was a devastating defeat mentally. Son Heung-min also had to play in the League Cup match against Coventry City. He was substituted in the middle of the second half. I missed the golden time to rest.

I had to take care of other players as well. The North London derby defeat has brought Brennan Johnson to great criticism. Criticism was strong enough to close his SNS. Other players were also not free from criticism. Some Tottenham fans made ridiculous accusations against Son Heung-min, saying, `The worst captain in history.'

Son jumped into the back space throughout the game. There were many times when the pass didn't come in. But I didn't care. I had a lot of thoughts, too. The timing was disappointing when he faced the opposing goalkeeper one-on-one. There was also a scene where I hesitated to create a more perfect chance. In the domestic soccer community, posts criticizing Son Heung-min were posted, writing only this scene.

Son Heung-min eventually spoke as an offensive point. He poked a sharp pass to Johnson in the 28th minute. Made Johnson's come-from-behind goal. It was Son Heung-min's first assist of the season.

And he poked a good pass to Madison in the 40th minute of the second half. the team's netting. Son Heung-min posted his second assist of the season.

It's okay even if there's no goal. Son Heung-min thought of winning the team first. And he led his team to victory with two gear help.

After the game, Son Heung-min gave a thumbs up to the stands.
