Heung-Min Son’s 70 plus meter solo effort against Burnley for Tottenham has been selected as the Premier League goal of the season.
Tottenham’s Heung-min Son has won the Premier League goal of the season.
More often than not the goal of the season is quite acrobatic and real screamer.
But his season the winner was an energetic solo run from deep in their own half.
The South Korean international went on an amazing run from the edge of his own 18 yard box.
He dropped the odd shoulder, jinked and turned, skipped and sprinted before cool as a cucumber placing the ball past the keeper.
It was the goal that led Jose Moutinho to dub his star Son-aldo Nazario.
He recalled with Sky Sports:
“Even before this goal, my son calls him Son-aldo, Son-aldo Nazario – and today he was Son-aldo Nazario.”
“The only thing that comes to my mind is the goal where I had the honour to be seated next to Sir Bobby Robson.”
“It was Compostela-Barcelona, 1996, and Ronaldo Nazario got the ball behind the midfield line and scored a very similar goal to Son. Amazing goal.”
