Tottenham won 4-1 in the eighth round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season against West Ham at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 19th (Korea time).
Son Heung-min made his comeback against West Ham on the same day. Son Heung-min, who started as a left winger, has been on the starting list for the first time in four games since he was replaced by a hamstring injury in the last Europa League match against Karabakh. During the A-match period in October, he gave up even joining the Korean national team and focused on rehabilitation of his injury, and was able to return to Tottenham's starting list immediately after the A-match period.
