Heung-min Son once again stood up for South Korea in their latest World Cup qualifier, with the Tottenham man producing an outstanding finish.
Heung-min Son continues to produce goods
South Korea are often reliant on their captain to make the difference in the final third, and he produces more often than not. Just look at his 51 international goals tally as proof of that.
The 32-year-old stepped up to convert a spot-kick with consummate ease last week as the East Asian side beat Kuwait 3-1 away from home.
The Tottenham man delivered the goods again in the clash against Palestine on Tuesday, producing a fine finish in the first half to earn his side a draw.
Heung-min Son’s impressive finish
Palestine took the lead against the run of play at the Amman International Stadium in Jordan, with Zaid Qunbar putting the home side in front on 12 minutes.
However, it took only four minutes for the Koreans to respond, with some lovely interplay down the left ending with an arrowed finish into the bottom corner by Son. The Spurs winger opened up his body beautifully to curl his effort into the back of the net.
MORE SPURS STORIES
However, the Palestinians managed to hold on to a draw despite a barrage of attacks from the away side, emerging with a respectable point.
Despite the dropped points, South Korea are still in a strong position to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, currently sitting at the top of Group B with 14 points.
Son has found his goalscoring boots
Over recent games for Spurs, Son did appear to be getting his sharpness back and showed signs of coming back into form.
These two goals over the international break will do wonders for the Tottenham captain’s confidence when he returns to Hotspur Way.
Up next are Manchester City, who are one of the forward’s favourite opponents, and you would not bet against him finding the back of the net at the Etihad Stadium.
