Son Heung-min started in the 2022-2023 season EPL round 21 away match between Tottenham and Fulham held at Craven Cottage in London, England on the 24th (Korean time) and helped Kane’s opening goal in extra time in the first half. With this, Son Heung-min recorded the 3rd assist in the league and increased the season’s attack points to 4 goals and 3 assists. If you add up the 2 goals scored in the European Football Federation (UEFA) Champions League (UCL), you get 6 goals and 3 assists in the official game.
In the 46th minute of the first half, Son Heung-min received the ball from the left side of the penalty arc and passed it to Kane in the center. With this goal, Kane wore a Tottenham uniform and scored his 266th goal in official matches, tying him with Tottenham legend Jimmy Greaves, who dominated the 1950s and 60s, as the club’s all-time top scorer. In terms of EPL alone, he scored his 199th goal, leaving one goal out of 200. It is nine goals behind Wayne Rooney (208 goals), who is second in history.
The Son-Ke duo’s EPL record for most joint goals has also increased to 44 goals. It is the 51st joint goal in the official match. The joint goal in the league between the two is the first in about three months since Brighton and Hove Albion in October last year. Their record is currently in progress, even exceeding the existing Frank Lampard-Didier Drogba (above Chelsea)’s 36 goals.
Afterwards, Son Heung-min showed active movement from the front, but the flow was often cut off by the opponent’s rough defense, and he was replaced by Hischarlisson in the 31st minute of the second half without taking his own shooting opportunity. The local evaluation of Son Heung-min was somewhat disappointing. Even though he assisted the winning goal, ‘Who Scored.com’, a media specializing in football statistics, gave Son Heung-min a rating of 6.7. Among the best 11, it was the second lowest rating after Dejan Klusevsky (6.6 points). Football London also gave Son Heung-min the lowest 5 points among starting players, saying, “I fought actively and did not stop running. I helped Kane’s goal, but he had no influence on the game.”
Meanwhile, Tottenham, who had been sluggish with two consecutive losses recently, fired a signal of a rebound. Tottenham, who kept 5th place in the league (36 points, 11 wins, 3 draws, 7 losses), narrowed the gap with Manchester United, who played one less game (39 points, 12 wins, 3 draws, 5 losses), to 3 points.
