Tottenham won 2-0 in the 24th round of the English Premier League (EPL) match against Brentford in the 2024-2025 season at G-Tech Community Stadium in London on the afternoon of the 2nd (local time).
I met Son Heung-min in the mixed zone after the game. He said "It's a difficult moment for the players, but they tried, they sacrificed. I praised it." As for the upcoming match against Liverpool "Only one step away from the final of the League Cup." I'll prepare to go to Wembley."

-You made a great contribution to the victory. After the game, the team gave a speech in a hurry. It was impressive to see the team coming together.
▶It can be said that it is a very difficult time and a difficult moment for others to see. I think one victory like this helped the players to get together. I praised the players for their sacrifice and hard work. Ben Devivis added something important and nice. As a senior player, I'm very happy as a team member because I think I helped a lot. It's because the parts that the team members worked hard in difficult situations are not compensated separately. I think I said something as a captain that the players should be rewarded.
-They are athletes who speak various cultures and languages. As a captain, what do you emphasize with senior players?
▶There are players who play more important roles than me. They're old players like me, like Ben Davis and Fraser Forster. Players like this always help me a lot. It plays a big role in encouraging young players from the side.
I really appreciate what they do as a team. I think these things should be said. Thank you so much. I'm so proud to have such a team member next to me.
-I finally broke the league losing streak.
▶The most important thing is that the players charged their confidence by breaking the losing streak now. I think it was the most important to get this rhythm. In the meantime, I think it should be praised for the players' solid defense to avoid scoring goals. I think this kind of victory will definitely help the players greatly in differentiating their confidence and atmosphere.
-I'm going on an away trip to Liverpool. I think it's going to be the most important game.
▶ Starting with the Europa League, I think we're celebrating the most important 10 days of this season. We finished the two games well. I keep saying this, but I think every game is incredibly precious and it's a final. I'm playing with that kind of mindset.
The away game in Liverpool is even more special. It's only one step away from the League Cup final. I hope we prepare well and get good results to create a situation where we can go to Wembley. Not only me, but I think all the players should all become one and prepare well.
-I think I'm proud of the young players who did well.
▶We play soccer to see this situation where young players develop.I'm proud of all the players because they've always tried from a difficult situation and that kind of effort is rewarded. Not only Jed Spence, but also Archie Gray, Lucas Beribal and Sarr came in as replacements today and scored goals. Moore started today and showed good performance.
I think all the players have worked really hard on the stage they have dreamed of since they were young, and they have earned this position by making different efforts and hard work from others every day. I feel very proud as a player because I always feel rewarded for my hard work. This is not all, so I think it would be good as a team member if all the players could show more motivation and work hard.
