Son Heung-min (28) made a grim mistake in the match against Crystal Palace (hereinafter referred to as C. Palace), who helped the season’s regular league No. 4.
Son Heung-min started an away game against C. Palace in the 12th round of the 2020-2021 Premier League (EPL), which ended at London Selhurst Park on the 14th (Korean time).
In this season’s EPL, as part of the’Black Lives Matter (BLM)’ movement, players kneel at the start of the game.
On this day, as the referee blew the whistle, the players of both teams knelt, but Son Heung-min and C. Palace striker Christian Benteke were the exceptions.
The two players forgot to kneel and fought. Benteke ran into the Tottenham camp, and Son Heung-min stopped him with his body.
Son Heung-min and Benteke realized the mistake within seconds and knelt down as if nothing had happened on the spot and gave a big smile.
Son Heung-min helped Harry Kane’s opening goal in the 23rd minute in the game that started with’Mom Gag’ and increased the regular league season’s help to four.
Son Heung-min is recording 13 goals and 7 assists in the official match with 10 goals and 4 assists in the regular league and 3 goals and 3 assists including qualifying in the European Football Federation (UEFA) Europa League.
