A famous SNS account related to overseas sports presented an interesting illustration on Son Heung-min. The three-way relationship between Tottenham, rival Arsenal, and the league's strongest Manchester City is presented in a subtle way.
Blitzer Report posted on its SNS account on Thursday that Son Heung-min was agonizing over between the two buttons. For one, Tottenham will advance to the UEFA Champions League next season as it will help defending champion and arch-foe club Arsenal win the North London derby after winning the match against Manchester City, which is seeking its fourth consecutive Premier League championship.
The other button was to lose to Manchester City and prevent Arsenal from winning. Of course, that will cost Tottenham's Champions League ticket.
For Son, it could be a reality. Tottenham invites Manchester City to its home stadium, Tottenham Hotspur, on May 15 to have their final showdown of the Premier League season. Earlier, Tottenham had one draw and one loss this season against Manchester City. In an away match in the Premier League last December, Son Heung-min played a "one-man show" with one goal each and one own goal, drawing 3-3.
However, in the FA Cup home clash in January, when Son Heung-min was absent from the Asian Cup in Qatar, he lost to Manchester City 0-1.
This is the third match of the season, and both Tottenham and Manchester City are now fighting ahead of the final Premier League season match on May 20. Manchester City is currently in second place in 34 Premier League matches with 24 wins, seven draws, and three losses (79 points). However, as Arsenal, the leading team, has recorded 80 points in 35 matches, Manchester City can achieve its fourth consecutive Premier League victory regardless of the outcome of the remaining four matches.
Tottenham ranks fifth in the Premier League with 60 points. It is seven points shorter than Aston Villa (67 points), which is in fourth place, but the problem is that Tottenham played only 33 matches, two fewer than Aston Villa, which played 35 matches.
Arithmetically, there is no chance of Tottenham's Champions League ticket, which is given up to fourth place in the Premier League, but if Tottenham wins, it is more likely to finish the season in fourth place depending on Aston Villa's results.
The illustration paid attention to Son Heung-min's choice in this situation.
It is also noteworthy that Manchester City is only scoreless in the Premier League at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which was completed in April 2019. It has the ability to defeat any team on the planet, but there have been no Premier League goals for the past four years at Tottenham's home stadium. He scored his first official goal at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium through an away match in the FA Cup in January.
It also means that Manchester City is weak in Tottenham's away match.
Of course, there is no reason for Son Heung-min to agonize over victory and defeat against Manchester City. Of course, it is expected that he will fight for victory and aim at Manchester City to secure a Champions League ticket. The illustration is regarded as just a fun way to solve the current Tottenham situation by featuring Son Heung-min.
