Liverpool Sala Cham Education → Son Heung-min, who is bowing down, is really painful to cry at the protest of the resignation of Tottenham's chairman Levi Out
Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy is also a thorny cushion.
Tottenham lost to Liverpool 3-6 in the 17th round of the English Premier League (EPL) of the 2024-2025 season at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 23rd (Korea time). It was a humiliating defeat.
Liverpool took the lead with Ruid Diaz's first goal in the 23rd minute of the first half. Alexis McAllister scored an additional goal in the 36th minute of the first half. In the 41st minute of the first half, James Maddison scored a comeback goal for Tottenham.
But the hope was only for a moment. In Liverpool, Dominique Sobosler shook the third net in the 46th minute of extra time in the first half. Mohamed Salah then scored consecutive goals in the 9th and 16th minutes of the second half. In an instant, the gap widened to 5-1, 4 goals. Tottenham followed Dejan Kulusevski in the 27th minute of the second half with relay goals from Dominic Solanke in the 38th minute, but that was it.
Liverpool won away in the 40th minute of the second half with Diaz's netting. Salah completed two goals and two more, Diaz two goals and Sobosleri one goal and one assist. On the other hand, Tottenham 「Captain」Son Heung-min failed to score goals for three consecutive games. He was replaced by Timo Werner in the 37th minute of the second half.

The prelude to the disaster was the resignation of Chairman Levy. Some fans put up placards demanding his resignation ahead of the match against Liverpool. The placard mocked 'I don't care about Levi and he doesn't care about me'
He also held a black balloon reading 'LEVY OUT' to protest. Fans planned to put balloons on the ground in the 24th minute of the first half, but few balloons sat on the lawn.
Tottenham's recent two-game winning streak was cut off by the defeat. He also failed to leap to the top of the rankings by staying in 11th place (23 points). Son Heung-min couldn't raise his head either. He scored one shot. This shot was not an effective shot either.
The rating was also low. 'FootballLondon' whirled ' but contributed little at the moment of importance. Postecoglou compared him to Salah a few weeks ago but gave him a rating of five, with the assessment that the difference was evident in this match.
Coach Enze Postecoglou recently made Salah appearance when 32-year-old Son Heung-min's 'age problem' was discussed. He "I think there was a question about Salah about a year ago. It may be helpful to ignore Son, but I am wary of such evaluations."
Salah opened a new history of stepping on the '10 (goal)-10 (help)' before the first Christmas in EPL history. With 15 goals and 11 assists, he rose to first place in both scoring and helping. It is also the first time in the EPL to achieve '10-10 Club' for four consecutive seasons.

After the match, Son told Britain 'Sky Sports"It's really disappointing. In particular, six runs at home is the worst result. It hurts a lot. "As a soccer player, I always want to play. But now, we have to recover hard and make sure that as many players as possible can come back. I don't want to make excuses. We were ready and tried to play as sharp as we could."
There is no doubt about Liverpool. It's a team that's at the forefront of the league and, as you can see, has great players and great organization. It's clear why they're at the top of the league. If you make a mistake, you will be punished right away. That's how strong a team is."
As for Tottenham's attack-oriented tactics "Football always carries risks. You can get a run even when you step back. This is our style of play. We have to endure through difficult times or good times together"I was very disappointed in today's game. The same will be true of players, fans and clubs. But the game schedule is tight. We must all join forces. We should rebound by giving and receiving good feedback from each other."

Son Heung-min also said in an interview with Sports Chosun 'Mix Zone"It seems to be a bit unacceptable. He was in a difficult situation by giving up more goals at home. Still, I think the players worked hard. Nevertheless, the players are also very disappointed that the results came out like this. At times like this, it is most important for the players to get together at a bad time. I hope that we can get better together by giving feedback."
Tottenham's 18th round opponent is Nottingham Forest. The whistle goes off at midnight on the 27th. Son Heung-min said, `There is no easy game every time. Players also play a lot of games, so it may be a little difficult physically, but they need to recover well. As the opponent is on the rise, I think if you prepare well and bring good results, you will be able to change the atmosphere. I think I need to recover well and prepare well," he added.
Postecoglou said "It was a tough day for us and a painful result. Liverpool are a very good team and have a great moment. They are very stable, good form, and have great faith. Today was too far a bridge for us. We recognized that we lacked the ability to compete at the same level as them," he said, admitting defeat.
