1 to 3 losses against Liverpool, expected to recover in first half injury Kane

Since the 6th of this month (Korean time), Son Heung-min (29, Tottenham)’s shoulders have become heavier.
Tottenham coach Jose Mourinho said on the 29th that “Harry Kane will be missing for weeks” after a home game against Liverpool. Kane is Tottenham’s main gun this season, who runs first in all of the English Premier League (EPL) attack points (23, 12 goals and 11 assists). Son Heung-min is tied for second overall with 18 attack points (12 goals and 6 assists).
Kane’s vacancy, with 13 goals in the league with Son Heung-min this season, is a big concern for Tottenham. Kane suffered a rough tackle in the first half of the 13th minute against Liverpool on that day and complained of ankle pain after falling, eventually being replaced with the start of the second half. Tottenham lost 1 to 3 after being beaten by Sadio Manet with 1 goal and 1 help, halting undefeated in 4 league games (2 wins, 2 draws). The ranking was also pushed to 6th place (33 points), 8 points behind Manchester City (41 points).
Son Heung-min shook the net after receiving Kane’s pass after 2 minutes and 40 seconds from the start of the game, but it was invalidated and left regret. As soon as he received a pass from Tanggi Ndombele in midfield, Son Heung-min, who connected to Kane with a one-touch back pass, penetrated into the offensive camp, took the ball back, scored a goal, and even held a ceremony. When receiving the ball from Ndombele, he was ahead of the opponent’s defense by a small margin. Son Heung-min has been blocked from scoring after Brentford and the League Cup semifinal on the 6th. For Tottenham, who will face 8th place Chelsea on the 5th following the league game with Brighton on the 1st of next month, Son Heung-min’s goal is in desperate need.
