Son Heung-min’s sad ‘storm dribble’… Conte with a big nose

In the Europa Conference League, Tottenham suffered a shock loss from Slovenia’s Mura, who are considered the weakest. Substitute Son Heung-min struggled, but could not prevent Conte’s first defeat.

Coach Conte was hit by a blow after trying to promote 2nd promotion at Mura, the bottom of the group, which has a record of losing all four matches.

After conceding the opening goal in the 11th minute of the first half, Sessegnon was sent off due to accumulated warnings in the 32nd minute of the first half and was pushed to the brink.

Son Heung-min, a substitute in the 9th minute of the second half, energized as soon as he entered.

He swung the opposing defense with a brilliant dribble and shot a right-footed shot, but the goalkeeper saved him and swallowed the disappointment.

Tottenham equalized with a goal from Harry Kane in the 27th minute of the second half, but that was it.

Even after pushing one-sidedly until the last minute, he suffered from a lack of decisiveness, and collapsed in a counterattack just before the final whistle and conceded the winning goal.

Conte, who suffered his first defeat after taking office, was shocked.

Tottenham Hotspur, who lost first place in the group, were in the worst situation where they could be eliminated even if they win the final match.
