Heung-Min Son, who has not received any news of attack points since the opening game of the league, led the team’s attacking team along with Kane and Klusevsky at the start of the first half and aimed at the opponent’s goal net. He challenged the league’s first goal hunt, but he was repeatedly tackled while holding the opposition, and he didn’t have much of a chance throughout the first half. Son Heung-min, who spurred the attack in the second half, had a shooting opportunity in the 5th and 10th minutes of the second half in a 0-0 match, but was unable to score. In particular, Kane’s long pass, which started near the half-line in the 11th minute of the second half, received a decisive opportunity, but it was disappointing that it might not be completed with a goal.
However, Son Heung-min scored a sharp kick from a corner kick in the 19th minute of the second half, and Perisic headed in from the doorstep, and Kane shook the net, contributing to the team’s opening goal. Kane scored his 185th league goal for Tottenham, setting the record for most goals in a single club in the Premier League. The goal became his 1000th goal in Tottenham’s home match, setting two records for Kane.
Son Heung-min stepped out of the field as a substitute in the 30th minute of the second half, and Hwang Hee-chan was replaced 5 minutes later, and the expected first Premier League Korean derby of the season did not happen. Tottenham won 1-0 thanks to a goal from Kane.
