Tottenham’s goalless streak, which had continued for two consecutive games, broke at the toes of Heung-Min Son.
Son Heung-min delivered a sharp corner kick to Harry Kane’s head in the 22nd minute of the first half and helped open the scoring.
It was his 7th league assist and his 41st joint goal with his best friend Harry Kane.
After warming up, Son Heung-Min went out as a direct solver in the second half.
Klusevsky, who caught the ball from the side, gave a pass in line with Heung-Min Son’s rushing speed.
It was his first goal in three matches and his 18th goal in the league, breaking the record for the most goals in a season by a Korean player in a European league that he and Cha Bum-geun held together.
In the 34th minute of the second half, he even scored a fantastic goal.
This time, Klusevsky came as a helper, and he hit a ‘wonder goal’ with his left foot in the so-called ‘Heung-Min Son zone’, putting the wedge in the game.
Heung-Min Son, who finished second in scoring alone, followed leader Salah by three goals.
Son Heung-min, who was involved in all three goals scored by the team with two goals and one assist, was replaced three minutes later by warm applause from home fans and a hug from coach Conte.
Son Heung-min was selected as the best player of the match, and Tottenham, who won 3-1, continued their hopes of advancing to the Champions League.
