“Son Heung-min, a terrible ending” was criticized… Is the cause of the 2nd big chance miss before QPR → SON TOP?
Son Heung-min was criticized.
Tottenham beat Queens Park Rangers (QPR) 2-0 in a pre-season game at Loftus Road Stadium in London, England, at 11 p.m. on the 20th (Korean time).
Tottenham won by two points with Yves Bissouma’s goal at the end of the first half and Dane Scarlett’s net at the end of the second half.
Son started the game. Overall, he played hard, but displayed disappointment in scoring a goal. Tottenham launched a fast counterattack in the 27th minute of the first half. A perfect cross went up and a chance came in front of Son, but the goalkeeper blocked his shot. He tried to turn Pedro Porro’s cross around the goalpost at the 43rd minute of the first half, but he turned away from the goalpost. After just 45 minutes in the first half, Son was substituted out.
While playing for 45 minutes, Son had a pass success rate of 80 percent (12/15), one shot on goal, and two missed big chances. He received a 6.3 rating based on the soccer statistics magazine “potmob,” which was the lowest among the starting players. He played hard in the front but missed two good chances.
England’s “Football London” also rated players after the match. Son received six points. “He played hard in the center of attack again, and although he had a chance to score a goal in the middle, he fired a shot at the goalkeeper.” Brennan Johnson and Timo Werner, who scored five points, scored lower than Son.
“I missed what Johnson put on the plate. It was a really poor finish that I had to improve ahead of the new season,” the British media said when awarding Son five points.
It is certainly regrettable that Son Heung-min missed the chance, but again this time Son Heung-min played as a front-line striker. Even though the left winger is more destructive. Son Heung-min, who played as a front-line striker to fill Harry Kane’s void last season, lost his destructive power at the end of the season. It was a good performance with 17 goals and 10 assists in the league, but his last-minute pace was not good.안전놀이터
As a result, there were many opinions that Son should return to the left winger. However, Son is still playing as a front-line striker. He was a “SON-TOP” in all three pre-season games. The reason is that recruitment of front-line strikers has been delayed. Although Son is showing interest in Ivan Toney, detailed negotiations have not been made.
