[OSEN=강필주 기자] Son Heung-min (31, Tottenham) goes on a goal hunt against Manchester United (Man United).
Britain’s ‘The Hard Tackle’ drew attention by selecting three players who could be key in the game between Tottenham and Manchester United on the 27th (Korea time). Son Heung-min, along with Tottenham team-mate Harry Kane and the Manchester United midfielder’s opponent, Casemiro, were named as players who could influence this game.
Tottenham and Manchester United will face off in the 33rd round of the ‘2022-2023 English Premier League (EPL)’ held at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England at 4:15 am on the 28th (Korea time).
Tottenham have recently lost to Bournemouth and Newcastle United. In particular, they fell to 7th place after losing 1-6 against Newcastle. The possibility of participating in the European competition, let alone the top 4, is in a difficult state. They even gave a message that they would refund even the tickets for this game.
Tottenham sacked interim manager Christian Stellini after a shock defeat to Newcastle. Acting head coach Stellini had worked as an assistant coach under Antonio Conte and took over after Conte’s departure.
Manchester United lost to Sevilla in the semi-finals of the Europa League, but they continue a good flow in the reverse. In the league, they are currently in the top 4 with three wins in a row. There is a gap of 5 points with Aston Villa in 5th (54 points).
But it is too early for relief. If they lose to Tottenham, they could miss out on a ticket to the Champions League next season. Like United, who won a sweaty victory over Brighton in the FA Cup semi-final after a penalty kick, they hope to win again against Tottenham.
The media looked back at Son Heung-min, who suffered ups and downs this season, saying, “Last season, he scored 23 goals and became joint top scorer in the league, but I wouldn’t have expected to” this season being so terrible.”
“Son Heung-min only scored 8 goals in the league this season. Also, Son Heung-min’s skills left a lot of regret this season,” he said. “That’s why Tottenham had to become Kane’s one-man team this season.” he did.
In response, the media argued, “Son Heung-min needs to restart his partnership with Kane to stab Manchester United,” and “If Son Heung-min regains his form, United will have a very difficult night.”
He added, “It will be interesting to see what version of the top scorer he will show at Tottenham’s home stadium.” As Son Heung-min showed a fiery game, it meant that he expected the best move against Manchester United.
Son Heung-min scored his 8th league goal and 101st Premier League goal against Bournemouth on the 15th. Now, Son Heung-min is trying to score double digits for the rest of the season. /letmeout@osen.co.kr
