Son Heung-min recorded three shots, two effective shots, two key passes, two dribbles and an 81% pass success rate on the day. Huscoard gave it a rating of 7.4, the second highest after Brennan Johnson (7.6). Footmob gave the highest rating of 8.2 points. The sofa score also scored 7.7, the highest. It meant that he performed the most outstanding performance at Tottenham on this day.
In fact, Son Heung-min was busy going back and forth between offense and defense on the day and showed a wide range of performances. Son Heung-min, who is improving his playmaking ability, continued to spray sharp passes on the same day. I created a good opportunity for my colleagues. The only scene that was disappointing was when his teammates' shots came out in the 36th and 40th minutes of the first half, but all of them did not lead to a goal.
Football London, which makes qualitative assessments, also pointed out this. Football London's rating was poor. It was only six points. Football London scored a penalty on the other side of the goalkeeper at the beginning. However, after Dejan Kulusevski hit the post, Son Heung-min's shot was a little loose. Sometimes it was threatening, but the rhythm was not perfect.
