.Tottenham win 2-0 over QPR ‘3 consecutive pre-season wins’

“Captain” Son Heung-min also played as a front-line striker in the second preseason game. Unfortunately, he failed to score.

Tottenham won 2-0 in a pre-season friendly match against Championship (minor league) Queens Park Rangers on Loftus Road in London on the 21st. Yves Bissouma and Dane Scarlett scored consecutive goals. Tottenham won all three pre-season games, including closed practice matches.

Tottenham had a closed practice match with Cambridge United of Ligue 1 (division 3) at Tottenham’s training site on Tuesday. Cambridge ranked 18th last season. It was a closed practice match, but Football London, a media outlet specializing in Tottenham news, delivered the results. Tottenham ended the first half 5-0 and the second half 2-2 on the day, winning 7-2. Son is known to have scored twice in the first half alone. Football London said that Brennan Johnson scored a hat trick in the first half, while Son scored twice.

After a three-week domestic break, Son left for London on July 7. Immediately joining the team, Son celebrated his team’s birthday. Tottenham even made a special tribute video with the phrase “A LEGEND IS BORN.” In addition, Tottenham released a video titled “The Captain of Tottenham” that shows Son moving around by connecting his image with a photo.

There was also a special event. Tottenham produced a video clip in which players entering the training site leave birthday messages for Son. Starting with James Maddison, many Tottenham players, including Hisalisson, Fraser Forster, Timo Werner, Pedro Porro, Emerson Royal, Yves Bissouma, Pape Sarr, and Sergio Reguilon, left birthday messages for Son on the camera. In the video, Son opened a balloon in the box to check after his teammates’ congratulations, and did not forget to thank him for his congratulatory messages.

He also made steady progress in preparing for the season. He got off to a good start. He displayed his best condition by scoring multiple goals from the first game.

Tottenham Hotspur on the day utilized a wide variety of players. Currently, Tottenham is not in a normal squad. Mickey Pantherpen, Radu Dragusin, Pierre-Emile Hoibierre and others joined Euro 2024, Christian Romero and Rodrigo Bentancourt in Copa America. Coach Enze Postecoglou appointed Son Heung-min, He Johnson, Porro, Medison, Bissouma, Werner, Oliver Skipp and Dejan Kulusevski. Archie Gray and Lucas Beribal, who were acquired from the summer transfer market, also made unofficial debuts.

The second pre-season game was held in Edinburgh, the U.K. on Wednesday. Tottenham won 5-1 in a friendly match against Hearts at Tynecastle Park. After starting the game, Son played 45 minutes, contributing to his team’s victory. What should be watched is Son’s position. Son played in the front line of 4-2-3-1. He was once again the “top man.”

In his first public match, manager Enze Postecoglou used Son as the “top.” Son was in charge of Tottenham’s front line last season. It was a desperate attempt due to Harry Kane’s transfer to Bayern Munich and Hisalisson’s poor performance. Son was better than expected on the occasion. Son, who had been a striker until the Hamburg era, also showed off his best performance as a one-top player. Son scored 17 goals in the league last season.

However, as the season progressed towards the end, the effect of “nail” decreased. Postecoglou fixed Son with the left wing again, and Son showed better performance. Although Son was offset by clever moves, it is also true that the side seemed more comfortable than the front line, which had to keep fighting against the opposing defender.

Prospects poured in that Tottenham would recruit a striker after the end of the season, but no news has been heard until mid-July. In the end, Postecoglou brought out the “nail” card once again. Although Son did not score a goal, he led the attack with active movements. Tottenham produced as many as five goals against Hearts, a strong team in the Scottish Premiership. After the match, Football London gave him a rating of seven points with the assessment that he was “active. He constantly threatened Hearts.”

Son Heung-min’s position was also at the forefront of the game against Queens Park Rangers. Son Heung-min formed a three-top with Johnson and Werner. Pape Sarr, Bissouma and Veribal were located on the waistline, and Jamie Donley-Archie Gray-Skip-Poro formed the four-back. Brandon Austin wore the goalie gloves.

Son displayed brisk movement at the frontier on the day. However, he managed to swallow his regret by missing two critical chances. At the 28th minute of the first half, Johnson attempted a ground ball cross by breaking down the right side. Son connected with a sensational shot that only changed directions, but the opposing goalkeeper hit it. Johnson also crossed from the right side again at the 44th minute. Son changed direction to his right foot. Again, the goalkeeper hit it.

He played for just 45 minutes in the first half, scoring 80 percent of his pass success rate, three touches in the opponent’s box, and one pitch into the final third region. However, his two shots were recorded as a “big chance miss.” Football London gave Son six points in grading. Football London said, “I worked hard to score a goal as I played as a central striker. I had two big chances in the middle of the first half, but I was blocked by the goalkeeper.”

Tottenham scored one goal each in the first and second half. Bissoumah scored the first goal right before the end of the first half. After receiving a 2-1 pass with Dejan Kulusevski, Bissoumah pushed his right foot from the left side of the penalty area. Kulusevski, who was deployed due to Beribal’s injury in the middle of the first half, displayed sensational passes. Tottenham, which changed all of its players in the second half, continued to push its opponents.

It sealed the match in the 42nd minute of the second half. Scarlett finished off Moore’s low and fast cross from the left side. In the end, Tottenham ended the match with a 2-0 victory.

Tottenham will now embark on its Asian tour. They will move to Japan and have a friendly match with Vissel Kobe of the J-League at the Tokyo National Stadium on Wednesday. They will then move to Seoul. They will have their first Korean tour in two years. They will play a friendly match against Team K League at the Seoul World Cup Stadium at 8 p.m. on Saturday. They will play against Bayern Munich, where Kim Min-jae plays, in the same venue on August 3.

Then, he will move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Aug. 11, where he will play another friendly match with Bayern Munich at home. Tottenham, which finishes the pre-season with Bayern, will play the opening match of the 2024-2025 English Premier League against Leicester City at 4 a.m. on Aug. 20. Son scored 17 goals and 10 assists last season, becoming the third player in the English Premier League to join the club. Having shown strong performance by wearing the captain’s armband, Son will try to advance to the European Champions League in the new season. 토토사이트 추천
