Son Heung-min - Page 3 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Fine after another injury scare Son was taken down in Thursday's qualifying match with South Korea, but he relayed after the match that "I am fine now, I don't like to lie down for a long time [on the pitch]. At...

Impact Son played the final 10 or so minutes through the issue and then he galloped around the stadium to cheer on the fans following a big 5-0 win. He's dealt with minor knocks throughout the season and has yet to miss a start for Spurs, going a full 90 in each of the last three league matches. It's going to take something big for him to miss time, as Son has started at least 33 league matches each of the prior three campaigns.

Shut down Saturday Son Heung-Min had one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Wolverhampton.

Impact Son was neutralized in Saturday's loss as he failed to record a shot on target for the first time since Aug. 26 and created just one chance in his full 90 minutes of action. With less stability at the back with Cristian Romero (suspension) and Micky van de Ven (hamstring) out, Son has less freedom to do what he does best -- get in behind opposing defenses.

Two shots in loss Son Heung-Min had two shots (two on goal) in Monday's 4-1 loss versus Chelsea.

Impact Son seemingly scored a goal in the 13th minute Monday to give Spurs the 2-0 lead, but was caught narrowly offside. He had a couple other chances to score in the match, but ultimately finished out the game as more of a defender with two of his teammates receiving red cards. With injuries and suspensions plaguing Spurs' backline, Son will have to score and create goals in the upcoming stretch of matches to keep Spurs afloat.

He created four chances for the third time this season, one of which gave him his first assist of the season. He is now fully in the Premier League Golden Boot race as he sits joint-second with Mohamed Salah with seven goals, two behind Erling Haaland.

Impact Son wasn't training with the national team because he wasn't 100 percent, but he pushed through the pain and played the full 90 for the fans Tuesday. It's not what Tottenham supporters want to hear, but it sounds like he'll be fine for Monday's match against Fulham, as he's dealing with minor knocks that he'll hopefully continue to play through. On the downside, he hasn't gone a full 90 since August because of these injury issues.

Impact After going scoreless in Spurs' first three Premier League matches, Son scored a hat trick versus Burnley, proving he's not ready to slow down just yet. He started at striker with Richarlison on the bench, something that may continue given how well it worked for Spurs' attack.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Threatening, but no shots-on-target Son Heung-Min registered two shots (none on-target), two crosses (none accurate) and created four chances in Saturday's 2-0 victory over AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Son Heung-Min was lively and dangerous on Saturday, his pace down Spurs attacking left flank was too much for the Cherries to contend with. He often created and combined moves with James Maddison which were reminiscent of his playmaking with Harry Kane. The Korean is yet to score or deliver an assist this season but his partnership with Maddison shows the promise of improving these statistics in the near future.

AUGUST 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Creates four chances in win Son Heung-Min recorded one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and four chances created in Saturday's 2-0 win against Manchester United.

Disappointing season debut Son Heung-Min had two shots (one on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Brentford.

Impact Son started Sunday's match after the departure of long-time running mate Harry Kane, and made his debut as the new club captain. He had a disappointing match, highlighted by a penalty he conceded in the 23rd minute. He was subbed off in the 75th minute for Ivan Perisic. With Kane off to Bayern Munich, Spurs will rely more on Son to both score and create goals this season.

Impact Son finished the 2022-23 season on the pitch but dealing with constant pain that was limiting his ability and is now back to full fitness. At his best Son is one of the most talented players in the league and now that he is fully fit once more he could be in line as an elite option in a dangerous Spurs attack. That said the potential departure of Harry Kane could lead to a less threatening goal-scoring environment in general for Son.

JULY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Gets run with South Korea Son trained and appeared in a recent friendly with South Korea after undergoing groin surgery at the end of the season.

Impact Son will get a couple months to get back his full fitness and considering he's already on the pitch, there shouldn't be a worry ahead of the new season. He noted the groin issue at the end of the season which led to surgery and possibly his worst goal output in a Tottenham kit. Under a new manager, Son will hope to return to prior form in the 2023/24 season.

JUNE 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Assists in season finale Son Heung-Min assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and two chances created in Sunday's 4-1 victory against Leeds United.

Impact Son recorded an assist in Sunday's season finale, to cap off what has been a disappointing season for last year's Golden Boot winner. He scored 10 goals and recorded six assists in 36 appearances (33 starts), his lowest goal tally for Spurs since his debut season in 2015. His assist total also ties his career low and is his fewest since 2018. With Son's running mate Harry Kane seemingly leaving the club this summer, Son will be relied on much more next season if Kane does depart.

MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Lacking end product Son took three shots (one on goal), crossed five times (three accurate) and created four chances during Saturday's 3-1 loss to Brentford.

Scores goal, assist in loss Son scored a goal and recorded an assist in Sunday's 4-3 defeat against Liverpool. He also won one of one tackles in the match, and he took three shots (two on target) overall.

Impact Son had a big hand in his side's dramatic comeback against Liverpool, as he scored the second goal and then set up Richarlison's stoppage-time equalizer with a free kick. Spurs were denied a share of the points via an even later Diogo Jota winner, but Son has tallied five goals and two assists across his last eight games after a very quiet first half of the season.
