[GOAL 리뷰] ‘Son Heung-Min Silence’ Tottenham collapsed in helpless performance … Lost 0-2 to Manchester United

[골닷컴] Reporter Kang Dong-hoon = Tottenham Hotspur suffered a devastating defeat in English professional football during a lethargic performance. At the same time, they still have to win against the 6 big teams they have met this season. Heung-Min Son started the game, but he couldn’t increase his attack points because he didn’t have the chance to do it.

Tottenham Hotspur defeated Manchester United 0-2 in the 12th round of the Premier League for the 2022/23 season held at Old Trafford, Manchester, England on the 20th at 4:15 am (Korean time).

Tottenham’s winning streak was halted today. Although the standings remained in 3rd place (W7, D2, L2, 23 points), it did not widen the gap with 4th place Chelsea (20 points). Tottenham Hotspur challenged the atmosphere by calling Newcastle United home in the next round.

After losing the “North London Derby”, Tottenham remained unbeaten in four official matches, mostly in the Premier League, and quickly settled the mood by winning two straight wins. In the midst of this, the plan was to continue the flow by winning a major match against Manchester United, who are closely chasing the top spots.

Coach Antonio Conte said: “Manchester United are a strong team. Old Trafford is a difficult place for the visiting team. It will be a difficult game. I will do my best to get good results.”

Mister Conte brought out the 3-5-2, not the 3-4-3 he had previously predicted. Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son entered as two tops, while Rodrigo Bentancour, Matt Doherty, Ivan Perisic, Yves Bisuma and Pierre-Emil Hoyvier formed the midfield. Ben Davis, Eric Dyer and Christian Romero formed the three defenders.

Contrary to expectations, Tottenham were overwhelmed from the start, offering Manchester United several threatening opportunities. In the first half alone, the numbers of the shots were blocked by 5-19 and the shots on goal were delayed by 1-5. Goalkeeper Hugo Lloris managed to avert the crisis thanks to a series of super saves. Tottenham Hotspur ended the first half 0-0.

Maybe it’s because we didn’t find the right atmosphere at the interval. Tottenham conceded a goal at the start of the second half. In the second minute, Jaden Sancho suffered a pass and Fred’s shot from the arcing circle hit Davis in the leg and deflected her, leading to goal.

After that, Tottenham failed to carry the flow easily and struggled to create offensive opportunities. Eventually he gave up again and collapsed. At 24 ‘of the second half, after a fight for the ball in the circle, Fred’s kick is captured in the defensive wall, but Bruno Fernandes breaks the net for the second ball without stopping.

Conte made several changes to change the mood later on. In the 37th minute of the second half Davinson Sanchez, Ryan Sessegnon and Lucas Moura entered, excluding Dier, Doherty and Bisuma. However, the game was already completely negative and in the end Tottenham were devastated 0-2.
