In the past Premier League season, South Korean striker Son Heung-min's performance can be described as "hot and cold". In Thursday's game, he scored a wonderful goal to break the long 8-game goal drought, after the game, the "old Sun" took the initiative to apologize to his teammates, for his own performance this season is dissatisfied, and hope that this goal will become his turning point. It is worth mentioning that the joint goals of Son Heung-min and Haliqani have made them the "strongest partnership" in the history of the Premier League.
Tottenham Hotspur will have a "North London Derby" with their arch-rivals Arsenal next, and Son Heung-min's timely recovery will undoubtedly bring great encouragement to the team. This is Son's second league goal of the season, and his last one was in the first round before facing Arsenal, when he scored three goals. However, after that, he failed to score in eight consecutive league matches. Son Heung-min said after the game: "The feeling of scoring is really amazing, it's just a matter of time. I feel sorry for my teammates, who expected me to contribute more. I hope this goal will be a turning point and give me more confidence to go for goals."
Opta data shows that this is the 34th time that Son Heung-min and Khalilani have scored together in the Premier League, a figure that surpasses that of Liverpool's Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, making them the "strongest partnership" in the history of the Premier League.
