England’s “Football London” said on the 9th (Korea time), “Coach Angel Postecoglou is about to end his five-game winless streak against Newcastle,” adding, “Hishalisson returned from the match against West Ham just before. Son Heung-min limped out of the stadium just before the end of the game, and Hishalisson wants to be selected.”
In the 15th round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) against West Ham held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, the U.K., on the 8th, Son was replaced as he felt uncomfortable at the end of the second half. In the 37th minute of the second half, Son Heung-min strongly clashed with Vladimir Coufal and collapsed and complained of pain. In the end, Postecoglou called in Son in the 43rd minute of the second half. He limped to the bench and grimaced as if he was in pain. He greeted the audience after the match, but his face looked dark.
When asked about Son’s injury after the match, Postecoglou said, “I’m not sure. I’m not sure.” Tottenham will have to play Newcastle three days after the match against West Ham. It will play Newcastle in the 16th round at 스포츠토토.
“Nothing has been updated yet,” Postecoglou told a news conference on Thursday in preparation for the match against Newcastle. “We will wait and see what happens after the match. We have to wait and see until Sunday,” he said. “There are no additional injuries except for Son.”
Football London reporter Lee Wilmot picked Tottenham’s 11 best players against Newcastle and predicted Son’s participation. However, he put the striker on the side, not the existing one. “Son Heung-min, who had a good performance against Manchester City, does not seem to be in a good condition at the moment,” he said. “I want to replace Brennan Johnson, who had a poor performance against West Ham, as a left-hander. And I will put Hishalisson as a front-line striker after his return in a month and a half.”
“Tottenham had a high ball possession in the match against West Ham, but I don’t think it played well. It wasn’t a good enough performance to lose, but I’m not sure if it deserved to win. With the score tied 1-1, Hishalisson’s header may have turned 0 points into 3 points,” he said.
Son was on the left side of the striker in the first to third rounds of the league this season, but he replaced Hishalisson as the front-line striker from the match against Burnley in the fourth round. After changing his position, Son scored nine goals to rank third in the scoring category.
