[엑스포츠뉴스 김희웅 인턴기자] With Son Heung-min doing a great job, Tottenham Hotspur seized the victory.
Tottenham finished the first half with a 1-0 lead to Fulham in the 33rd round of the English Premier League (EPL) for the 2020/21 season held at Craven Cottage in London, England at 3 am on the 5th.
The away team Tottenham came up with a 4-2-3-1 formation. Kane in the forefront, Son Heung-min, Delhi Ali, and Veil in the second line. The defensive midfielder is paired with Tangwi Ndombele and Pierre Emile Hoivier. The defense is built by Ben Davis, Davinson Sanchez, Toby Alderweireld, and Matt Doherty, while the goal is kept by Hugo Joris.
The home team Fulham is also a 4-2-3-1 formation. Josh Maza in the front line, Ruben Loftus Cheek, Kavaleiro and Ademola Lukman in the second line. Mario Remina and Cordova Reed form a double volante. The defense was built by Anthony Robinson, Toshin Adarabaiyo, Joakim Anderson and Ola Aina, and Alphonse Areola wore goalkeeper gloves.
At the beginning of the game, Fulham took the lead. In the second minute, Lukeman’s shot soared above the goal. Tottenham struggled somewhat with Fulham’s forward pressure. The attack wasn’t smooth, but it gradually brought the atmosphere.
In the 10th minute of the first half, a veil flooded the cross that Son Heung-min raised near the left of the box and connected the shot. It was similar to the scoring scene in which Son Heung-min and Bale collaborated in the last Burnley match. However, offside was declared.
Tottenham got a chance to get a free kick from a good position outside the box in the 17th minute of the first half. However, Bale’s shot as a kicker hit the top of the goal. On the left side in the 18th minute of the first half, Son Heung-min’s out-front cross followed by Kane’s header shot, but Areola blocked it.

Tottenham, who certainly raised the mood, scored. In the 19th minute counterattack situation in the first half, Son Heung-min received a pass from Ali, and after instantaneously defeating a defender in the box, he connected the cross with his left foot. Ali put his right foot on Son Heung-min’s cross and was hit by Adarabaiyo and sucked into the goal.
The onslaught continued. In the 29th minute of the first half of the first half, Son Heung-min entered the center from the left side and the ball wrapped up with his right foot missed the side of the goal. In the 40th minute of the first half, Ali’s cross followed by Son Heung-min’s header shot also bypassed the goal. Fulham shot the ball from the box as soon as it was over time in the first half, and Remina shot the ball, but it soared above the goal.
Overall, Tottenham tried intermittent forward compressions, and Fulham had 45 minutes of frequent build-up mistakes in the rear.
