Son Heung-min was right! Hisalisson's lying revival stands out as Tottenham's Troubleshooter

Tottenham Hotspur of the English Premier League defeated Newcastle United 4-1 on December 11 last year . Tottenham, which had faltered after leading the league in the early days of the season, had a pleasant victory and raised a signal of revival. Son Heung-min, who scored one goal and two assists on the day, came forward in an interview. "He is a more powerful striker in the box than I am," he said, giving credit to Hishalisson, who scored two goals. The broadcasters laughed at Son's modesty and passed it as a joke.

It seemed as if it was natural for the broadcasting hosts to show off their laughter. Son Heung-min was at the top of the scoring list with his peak performance, but Hishal Song had only one goal in the league before the match against Newcastle due to his severe slump and surgery early this season. In the match against Newcastle, Son moved to wing forward, and Hishal Song played as a one-top player and scored two goals. However, most people focused more on Son's sacrifice and assistance.

Son Heung-min's words have become a reality. Hisalisson is making a comeback like a lie, exploding his scoring capacity. He has become a completely different player from the beginning of the season. He scored five goals in December last year alone, contributing greatly to Tottenham's attack. He has displayed good teamwork with second-line strikers, including Son Heung-min, and continued to show good performance as one-top.

Tottenham faced its biggest crisis in early January. "Captain" Son Heung-min played for Korea at the 2023 Asian Cup in Qatar and had a hiatus. It was feared that Son would weaken his offense without him. However, he is holding on well in his own way due to his strong gums. Hishalisson is at the center of it.

After Son Heung-min was gone, Hishal Song scored goals in all three of Tottenham's EPL matches. He each scored one goal in an away game against Manchester United on Jan. 14 and a home game against Brentford on Jan. 31. He then scored multiple goals against Everton, his former team, three days ago. During the period, Tottenham had one win and two draws without a loss.

He has already achieved double-digit goals in the league. He scored five goals in December last year, two in January and two in February this year, marking 10 goals. After Son Heung-min who scored 12 goals, he ranked second in the league in Tottenham Hotspur and moved up to seventh in the interim tally along with Hwang Hee-chan of the Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Tottenham produced two wins, two draws and one loss in five matches during Son's absence. They beat Burnley 1-0 in the third round of the FA Cup, but lost to Manchester City 0-1 in the fourth round. They accumulated points by recording one win and two draws in the league. They ranked fifth with 13 wins, five losses, and 44 points. After Son's return, he needs to gain more momentum to re-enter the upper ranks. 토토

Meanwhile, Son led Korea to the semifinals at the 2023 Asian Cup. He scored a free kick goal in the final of the quarterfinals against Australia, helping Korea win 2-1. He will play in the semifinals against Jordan on June 7. If he defeats Jordan, he will have the final match on June 11. He will return to Tottenham after finishing his Asian Cup schedule.
