1-1 draw Tottenham, 6th place down
Lee Jae-sung contributed to defeating Focal Cup Munich
Son Heung-min (29, Tottenham) postponed the league’s 13th goal chance to the next game. Son Heung-min shot three decisive shots in the English Premier League (EPL) home game against Fulham at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 14th, but could not lead to a goal. Tottenham lead with Harry Kane’s opening goal in the 25th minute, but scored an equalizer in the 29th minute of the second half and drew 1-1. Tottenham, who failed to win against the lower-ranking team in an important match that could be an opportunity for the lead chase, fell from 5th to 6th with 8 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses (30 points).
Son Heung-min’s non-stop touch, diving heading, sprint, and other’three points set’ were blocked by the opposing goalkeeper’s super save and goal. In the 18th minute of the first half, Son Heung-min attempted a right-footed non-stop shooting that only changed the trajectory of Sergio Orrie’s cross. But the ball hit Fulham goalkeeper Alphonse Areola’s leg and bounced off. It was caught in the movement of the goalkeeper who reflexively lay down.
In the 24th minute of the first half, Son Heung-min’s diving heading after Tanggi Ndombele’s cross went to the corner of the goal, but it caught the goalkeeper’s finger. In the 27th minute of the second half, ahead of 1-0, he received a space pass near the half line and penetrated with a unique sprint, then connected with a left footed shot, but hit the goal. It was regrettable that the ball didn’t land properly on the back of the foot and was missed and flowed slowly. One minute before the end, the goal was scored by connecting a pass from the flank to Sergio Regilon, but the goal was canceled as Son Heung-min’s position was declared offside. Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho expressed deep regret, saying, “The goalkeeper’s incredible save came out.” Local media such as Sky Sports gave exceptionally low ratings, saying, “It wasn’t the usual appearance of Son Heung-min in front of the goal.” Meanwhile, Lee Jae-seong (29) of Holstein Kiel in Germany’s Bundesliga 2nd division contributed to the victory by playing full-time against Bayern Munich in the second round of the DFB (German Football Association) Focal Cup (final 32) in the 2020-2021 season. In the penalty shootout, which drew 2-2 until overtime, Lee Jae-sung split the goal with the fourth kicker. Kill wins 6-5 in the penalty shootout, advances to the round of 16 and meets the Darmstadt, where Baek Seung-ho plays.
