Son Heung-min (28) and Harry Kane (27), who are rising as the best offensive duo of the English professional football Premier League (EPL) history, are relentlessly running towards a new EPL history.
The two players, who have been breathing for the sixth season since 2015, when Son Heung-min transferred to Tottenham, are showing a perfect combination play this season as if they were’telepathy’.
They are bombarding the best stage of European football with an altruistic play that refrains from excessive goal greed and gives a quality pass immediately without worrying if each other has a chance to score.
On the 14th (Korean time), the destructive power of the’Son Kane Duo’ shined in the 12th round of EPL in the 2020-2021 season with Crystal Palace (hereinafter referred to as C. Palace) that ended at Selhurst Park in London, England.
Kane, who received a pass from Son Heung-min, shook the net with a surprise left-footed shot from a distance of about 30 meters after being tense at 0-0.
Kane’s judgment was the most brilliant goal scene. Son Heung-min’s altruistic play, which opened up an opportunity for Kane to shoot by moving toward the goal after passing the previous pass also helped score.
It was the 12th goal jointly by Son Heung-min and Kane in the EPL this season. They were responsible for half of Tottenham’s total 24 points in the league.
Now, if you add one goal, you can tie the record for the most joint goal of two players in a single season in EPL’s history.
The duo with the most goals in a single season in EPL is Alan Shearer-Chris Sutton, who scored 13 goals together 25 years ago at Blackburn Rovers in the 1994-1995 season.
Son Heung-min and Kane are on the verge of breaking the record set by the legends of English football when they have not completed the season schedule in less than half.
There is one more record that Son Heung-min and Kane are likely to surpass this season.
Sohn and Kane duo, who jointly scored 32 goals in EPL until the match against C. Palace on this day, are in second place in this category.
Frank Lampard- Didier Drogba (Chelsea) scored 36 goals in this category.
Son Heung-min and Kane, already recognized as’World Class’, only left 4 goals until they were recognized as EPL’s’All Time Best’ duo.
C. Heung-min Son and Kane, who led Tottenham (25 points, +14 points) to the lead with a goal against Palace (1-1 draw), went on to the 13th round against Liverpool (25 points, +9 points) on the 17th. In’Big Match’, we challenge ourselves to collaborate once again.
