Heung-Min Son scored 4 sensational goals when we arrived here to send Southampton 5-2 to St Mary’s Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
Our South Korean striker assisted in his four moves through Harry Kane, who was also given his decision on the game sheet with our fifth and final purpose in a very good demonstration in the second half, as we turned the game around.
Our first Premier League win of the season didn’t seem like the most likely result as the break approached when we were behind Danny Ings’ first game in the 32nd minute and we were in the first forty-five minutes, but we tied the scores. Two minutes after the time off with a well-worked goal, Tanguy Ndombele and Kane, who in the past had had two shots ruled offside, combined for Son to draw. forward at 47 minutes thanks to some other Kane pass.
Southampton played with a top line in defence and we had to make the most of it, Kane’s clever pass freed Son in the 64th minute and made no mistake in beating Alex McCarthy to complete his hat-trick, his first in the Premier League. he added his fourth purpose and ours nine minutes later, before Kane had the purpose he deserved with 8 minutes to play, jumping into the rebound after Erik Lamela’s shot hit the pole.
The home team scored a late moment in the area thanks to Ings after the referee awarded an opposite handball penalty to Matt Doherty following a VAR area review, but the damage was done at this level and all 3 problems they were in the bag
We had started well in the opening minutes and had the ball in the net after only 3 minutes, Kane completed with a great pivoted volley, but that ruled through VAR as Son was offside in the build. Seven minutes later it was almost a first time. for the hosts, but Hugo Lloris made a superb save to deny Che Adams a 12-meter shot after a corner kick and they too had a purpose nullified sometime later, Ings’ effort was nullified after the ball touched his hand before his conversion Moussa Djnepo then worked his way past Doherty at the purpose line and sent a low cross that spotted Adams from 8 yards, who took a bunt and delivered a shot, but Ben Davies controlled brilliantly to cross. and block, before Djnepo hit the post with a 20-yard walk.
The purpose threatening to arrive came here in the 32nd minute: former right Kyle Walker-Peters passed a ball over Eric Dier and Ings, who controlled with a tap and then beat Lloris from a closed angle. In a few minutes, we seemed uncomfortable and couldn’t get going as part-time progressed, but almost from scratch, we were on the same level. Ndombele produced a delicious ability to escape two Saints players in his own part of the area and all of a sudden we set out on the attack. He ceded the deflected ball to Kane who played a first pass to the defense to Son and the South Korean pulled out a touch and controlled a forehand shot past Alex McCarthy.
We made a rest replacement with Giovani Lo Celso replacing Ndombele and converting the formation from 4-3-3 to 4-2-3-1, but the Saints had the first chance at the beginning of the moment, Lloris saved. at the first minute. However, we climbed to the other goal and got ahead of ourselves a few moments later. A nice pass ahead of Lo Celso discovered Kane and slid the ball between two definishers to Son on purpose and beat McCarthy with a big punchline.
It’s turned into a much more even match at this point as either group has smart attacking opportunities without locating the finishing touches, Adams comes back at the end for the home look but drags his shot away from the edge of the area. with one of those possibilities. Instead, it was us who scored the next goal in the 64th minute with Son completing his hat-trick. Once back, it was Kane with the help, controlling a pass and running it over the Southampton top line for Son to catch up, steady himself and walk towards the house in silence. Unbelievably, the same two players combined for a quarter nine minutes later. This time Kane had the ball on his right and knew instinctively where Son would be, his center in the infield of pure perfection that allowed Son to control and score his fourth goal. And it has temporarily turned into a five with Kane scoring a well-deserved purpose. Lo Celso’s ball spotted replacement Lamela unmarked on the edge of the box, his shot flipped over the post through McCarthy but Kane was there to score the rebound.
In the last few minutes, Doherty sanctioned handball in the domain after a thorough inspection through the referee on the VAR monitor, Ings piercing the kick to circulate the marker in what the dictionary definition of a two-time game.
With this result less than 24 hours before we show the signings of Gareth Bale and Sergio Reguilon from Real Madrid, it is fair to say that it is a smart weekend for the Club!
While Son won the Fit Boy Award with his first four-goal run with the Spurs, he quickly made sure that much of the compliment was for teammate Kane!He helped the South Korean international’s four goals set a new Premier League record. – the first time a player helped the same player 4 times in a match. It was also the first time an English player had made four assists in a Premier League match, while Kane also doubled his assists last season in a match!
With the goals on point, Kane made the decision to get into action and did so with his head-to-head finish to score his 190th Spurs goal, leaving him with only 18 Bobby Smith, who is the second all-time top scorer. . Graphic.
The two groups each have covering for opposing former players, just a few weeks after making their moves. Our new midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg played at his former home in St Mary’s for his Premier League moment under our colours. while former Academy graduate Kyle Walker-Peters, a member of the Saints team, played against us for the first time.
Danny Ings’ first purpose for the house team meant we played 10 Premier League games on a blank sheet against Southampton.
The head coach, José Mourinho, is extremely happy with Son’s exploits on the south coast, but willing to highlight Kane’s importance in creating each and every blow.
“I know everyone will say that Sonny is up to the task because it’s a feat to score 4 goals in the Premier League, but I’m the coach of the team, I’m my whole team and what Harry has done for us is an example of the guy who’s not going to have the best of him. Array still that’s basic to the team,” he said after the game.
Kane himself added: “We had a disappointing start to the game, a purpose not allowed at first, a close decision, but then we agreed and were unable to get into the game.
“Scoring just before split time gave us a great touch and we went out at the most urgent moment, with much more intensity, and we took our chances when we had them. It was a wonderful, wonderful game for score cinq. et we can continue that momentum. ” .
