Son Heung-min (29, Tottenham), the first Korean player to receive the FIFA Pushka Award, expressed his special feelings for the success of his most goals in a season at the stadium named Pushkasi.

Son Heung-min scored a goal in the first half of the 32nd round of the European Football Federation (UEFA) in the 2020-21 season against Wolfsberger (Austria) held at the Pushkasi Arena in Budapest, Hungary on the 19th. I put a stepping stone.

Son Heung-min, who scored the 18th goal in the season in both the regular league and cup competitions, tied 13 assists and raised the season’s attack points to 31. He surpassed his 30 most attack points in one season (18 goals and 12 assists), which he set last season, in one season.

Unfortunately, because the venue was named after Son Heung-min’s Pushka Award two months ago, Ferenc Pushkashi, the protagonist, was more impressed by the scorer. After the game, Son Heung-min said, “It was a more special feeling to win by scoring a goal in this stadium after receiving the Pushka Award last year.”

Tottenham coach Jose Mourinho said at an official press conference, “Last year, Pushka Award winner Son Heung-min scored a goal here. “You will have special feelings,” he said. “Son Heung-min played 90 minutes against West Brom earlier, 120 minutes against Everton and 90 minutes against Manchester City. I asked him to help the team a little bit in the game today, but he did well.”
