Tottenham, who went on a ‘fox hunt’, were caught in a trap. Son Heung-min also failed to hunt for goals.

Tottenham lost 1-4 to Leicester City in the 23rd round of the English Premier League in the 2022-23 season held at King Power Stadium in Leicester, England on the 12th (Korean time).

Tottenham took the lead with Rodrigo Bentancourt’s goal in the 14th minute of the first half. It was a pleasant start.

But that was it. After that, they gave up 4 goals and lost completely.

Nangfalis Mendy scored in the 23rd minute of the first half, James Madison in the 25th minute, and Kelechi Iheanacho scored in extra time. Another goal was conceded to Harvey Barnes in the 36th minute of the second half.

Tottenham stopped at 2 consecutive wins and finished in 5th place (12 wins, 3 draws, 7 losses, 39 points). They failed to recapture 4th place, which will qualify for the European Champions League next season.

Tottenham also failed to close the gap with Newcastle United (40 points) in 4th place, who have yet to play two games.

Tottenham, who proudly beat Manchester City, the second-placed team in the league last weekend, showed an unexpected sluggish performance on this day.

Leicester City, who defeated Aston Villa 4-2 in the last game, continued their upward trend.

Leicester City, who scored 4 goals in 2 matches in a row, prepared a stepping stone to jump into the mid-table with 7 wins, 3 draws and 12 losses (24 points). 먹튀검증

Son Heung-min showed a particularly strong aspect to Leicester City and was called the ‘fox hunter’.

He opened the Leicester City goal 10 times, including a hat-trick in the 13th minute as a substitute in September last year.

Son Heung-min, however, played full-time that day, but could not see a hunter-like appearance. He didn’t even have attack points.

Leicester City’s pressing play stood out.

All Tottenham players, including Son Heung-min and Kane, suffered as if they were chained.

Leicester showed remarkable changes in all aspects such as organization, speed, and tactics. It was not the ‘easy’ Leicester of the past.

Son Heung-min, who was the top scorer last season with 23 league goals, but has been stagnating this season, is staying at 4 league goals this season.

There are still 3 goals left to his 100th goal in the Premier League in his personal career.

Tottenham coach Conte returned on the same day after undergoing surgery for cholecystitis, but had to watch the team lose.
