Son Heung-min surpassed Cha Bum-geun… Great performance against Leicester with 2 goals and 1 assist

[앵커]

Tottenham Hotspur’s Son Heung-min rewritten the record for most goals in a single season for a Korean in a European league held by former manager Cha Bum-geun.

He performed a one-man show with two goals and one assist, including a fantastic left-footed close-range shot.

Son Heung-Min opened the prelude to a great performance by assisting the 7th league in the 22nd minute of the first half.

Kane finished the sharp corner kick from Son Heung-min effortlessly with his head.

Heung-min Son and Kane worked together to increase the Premier League record for most joint goals to 41.

Son Heung-min, who rarely shot a shot, showed his original appearance in the 15th minute of the second half.

When Klusevsky passed a pass in the direction Heung-Min Son was running, Heung-Min Son scored the 18th goal with an accurate shot following a clean turn between the three defenders.

Son Heung-min broke the record for most goals scored by a Korean player in a European league in a single season, surpassing the 17 goals recorded by former coach Beom-geun Cha, the ‘legendary’ during his time in Leverkusen, Germany in the 1985-1986 season.

Son Heung-min roared once more in the 34th minute of the second half.

Again, following receiving a pass from Klusevsky, he scored the 19th goal with a fantastic left footed kick in the so-called ‘Heung-Min Son zone’ following a simple ball touch.

It was the best goal of the season when the opposing goalkeeper reached out but mightn’t stop it.

Coach Conte immediately called Heung-Min Son to the bench for physical fitness, and the audience gave a standing ovation to the team’s ace.

Son Heung-min rekindled the race for the top scorer by chasing Salah of Liverpool, the top scorer by three goals.

Tottenham, who defeated Leicester 3-1 with Son Heung-min’s one-man show, will face Liverpool, who are busy on their way to the league title on the 8th, without concessions.
