The fifth goal of Son Heung-min’s 2019-20 Premier League season was perhaps the finest he’s ever scored for Tottenham. Beginning at the edge of his own area, the 27-year-old attacker took off at a brisk pace before roaring through the gears and leaving eight Burnley defenders in his torrential wake.
Normal footballers like you or I would’ve then shanked our final effort high into the stands before collapsing into a heap of exhaustion at the other end, but not Son. He finished casually beyond the outrushing Nick Pope to give Spurs an unassailable 3-0 lead in only the 32nd minute of play.
It’s also worth noting that Son provided the assist on Harry Kane’s opener in the fifth minute. The South Korean international already has seven EPL assists this campaign, which is already a career best.
