[골닷컴] Reporter Dong-Ho Kim = Heung-Min Son’s strengths cannot be counted. He is equipped with quick feet, goal-making ability and the ability to take free kicks recently.
Among them, Son Heung-min’s strength is that he can freely use both feet. Heung-Min Son writes well with both his left and right feet. He also split the net between right-footed and left-footed mid-range prisoners once once morest Leicester City. He is inevitably confused as to which side to block from the opposing defender’s point of view.
Actual records support this. According to data from The Athletic, Son Heung-min is the best two-footed striker in Premier League history. He has the highest percentage of weak-footed goalscorers of any player who has played over 80 league games.
Heung-Min Son scored 44% of his goals until the end of last season with his left foot. Owen Hargreaves, a former Manchester United legend and critic, made an interesting comment on this. “De Bruyne like Son Heung-min digs in from the side and hits well,” he said. But it’s hard to do this with weak feet.”
“We checked Heung-Min Son’s speed, dribbling ability, and finishing scene with his left foot. Heung-Min Son has everything.”
Hargreaves evaluated that Son Heung-min was better than De Bruyne when it came to the ability to use his left foot. De Bruyne is one of the Premier League’s best assistants. He played for Manchester City, where he won four Premier League titles. He won the Premier League Player of the Year award for the 2019-20 season and the 2021-22 season, as well as two league assists.
