Sohn Heung-min (Tottenham) was silent, and Tottenham was defeated 0-3 by leading Manchester City (Man City).
On the 14th, Tottenham lost a scoreless goal in an away match in the 24th round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2020-2021 season against Man City at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, England.
It was a game that clearly revealed the limitations of Tottenham, who depended heavily on the two duos Son Heung-min and Harry Kane.
Tottenham went on to the top by starting out with Son Heung-min and Kane Duo on this day, but showed frustrating performance because of exhaustion due to a 120-minute extended fight against Everton three days ago.
Son Heung-min had to act as a side defender as well as a left attacker, and in the end, he couldn’t even shoot a single shot. Kane, who came to the top, also showed no power other than a shot taken by Son Heung-min’s pass in the 18th minute.
Tottenham scored 36 goals in 23 games in the EPL regular league, of which Son Heung-min (13 goals and 6 assists) and Kane (13 goals and 11 assists) are joining 26 goals. If at least one of the two misses or gets stuck in the defense, Tottenham can’t easily find an answer to the attack.
On the 11th, Tottenham, who recorded a second straight loss in the official match after losing in the FA Cup 16 match against Everton, showed a clear decline. In the last five games, he was 1-4, unable to come out of the sluggishness, and the rankings (10 wins, 6 draws, 7 losses, and 36 points) fell one stair to 9th.
Tottenham’s Son Heung-min is in pain after kicking an ankle by an opponent during the 2020-21 EPL match against Manchester City. yunhap news
