‘1 goal, 1 assist’ Son Heung-min selected as EPL official ‘Shearer’s Best 11’

Son Heung-min (29), who exploded with one goal and one assist last weekend, was selected as the ‘team of the week’ by the English Premier League (EPL).

Son Heung-min was named as the front-line central striker in the 4-3-3 formation in ‘Alan Shearer’s Team of the Week’ announced by the EPL Secretariat on the 8th (Korean time).

Heung-Min Son, who scored one goal and one assist, was at the core of Tottenham’s strengths, said Shearer, a ‘legend’ of English football, who selects players to be on the roster.

Son Heung-min helped Lucas Mora open the winning goal in the 10th minute of the EPL round 15 home match against Norwich City on the 6th, and was responsible for a 3-0 key in the 32nd minute.

Son Heung-min, who also scored in the 14th round of the EPL with Brentford on the 2nd, scored in two consecutive games and scored the league’s sixth (7th season) goal.

Along with Heung-Min Son, Demerai Gray (Leicester City) and Jerrod Bowen (West Ham) were selected as the best 11 attackers.

Mason Mount (Chelsea), Fred (Manchester United) and Bernardo Silva (Manchester City) were selected as midfielders.

Among the defenders, Ben Davis (Tottenham), Jamal LaSeles (Newcastle), Ezri Consa (Aston Villa) and Diogo Dalot (Manchester United) were named.

Emiliano Martinez (Aston Villa) has been selected as the best goalkeeper.

Meanwhile, local media such as the BBC reported on the 7th that six Tottenham players and two coaches tested positive for the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19).

In the midst of this, ‘Football Insider’ reported the names of players who tested positive and included Heung-Min Son.
