Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min's decision saved both coach Enze Postecoglou and his best friend Frazier Foster. It seemed to show that this is how the real decision is made to former chairman Chung Mong-kyu, who declared his bid for the fourth term as the president of the Korea Football Association by shouting "the decision is made."
Tottenham Hotspur won 4-3 against Manchester United in the quarterfinals of the 2024-25 Carabao Cup (League Cup) at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the morning of the 20th (Korea Standard Time).
The previous and second half were completely different. And Son was present in both the goal process and the final destination. Son has expressed his determination to pour out his aspiration to win at Tottenham on the ground.
Son Heung-min, who played as a left flanker, tried to curl his right foot as he came in from the left side of the midfield to the center in the 14th minute of the first half. It passed by the goal post, but the attempt itself was not bad.
A minute later, Dominic Solanke's first goal was scored. Son Heung-min, who received a free kick from James Maddison, saw his teammates around him instead of shooting and connected the pass, and reached Solanke through the connection to score a goal. Tottenham, which had a good first goal, seemed to be taking the game easy with Dejan Klusevski and Solanke scoring goals one after another after the start of the second half.
However, Manchester United manager Hoobeng Amorim gave a precise prescription. Rasmus Hueirun and Antony, who failed to display special performance in the 11th minute, took off the bench and deployed Joshua Girksey, Ahmad Diallo and Kobe Minu. Girksey has scored goals every day since Amorim came in, and Diallo did the same.
Amorim attempted to put forward pressure on Tottenham's build-up. The intention worked and Djirkjee defended in the 18th minute. It was a goal that came as Tottenham's defense missed Bruno Fernandes' pass.
Tottenham ended up destroying themselves in the 25th minute. A back pass error was made during the build-up process, and Diallo pressed him to tackle the ball that Foster was trying to kick sloppy at and push it straight away. It was a fatal mistake made by Foster, who suddenly became the starting player due to long-term injury to goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
The atmosphere of the game changed dramatically. Tottenham fans looked stiff and Manchester United fans who came to cheer for the away game shouted and rejoiced. When Diallo scored, Amorim continued to shake Tottenham's defense, which showed loopholes in the back space of the side by excluding center midfielder Manuel Ugarte and putting in Alejandro Garnacho.
Only then did Postecoglou respond. He kept looking at the ground, but he took out Madison, who had been active for 34 minutes, and put Lucas Veribal in. It was a card that could be put in a situation where multiple players were injured.
At that moment, Son made an appearance. He tried to catch a ball connected to the side at the 43rd minute, and the defense cleared it. It was a corner kick made by Son's pressure. He hesitated due to fatigue after sprinting to take the ball away, but soon, as he became the kicker himself, he raised one arm at the left corner and kicked the ball as it was. It was a trajectory that turned high and entered the right corner of the net surprisingly. It was a direct goal from a corner kick that is hard to see. All of the players rushed to Son and hugged him. 먹튀검증
Son Heung-min's goal became the winning goal when Jonny Evans scored a comeback goal in extra time. Son Heung-min has solved both the coach's lack of strategy and Foster's mistakes. He is Son Heung-min, who has two games left to advance to the semifinals and win the championship he wanted.
