Here are the Tottenham star’s individual stats in Monday’s fixture:Touches: 75Passes: 54/66 (82%)Passes into the final third: 5Defensive contribution: 4 (two tackles, one interception, one clearance)Recoveries: 7Duels won: 2Video: Son has scored two in two for KoreaWhile it was a bruising loss for the South Koreans, Son has had an impressive international break, finding the back of the net against both Ecuador and Turkey.His goal in the 3-0 win over Ecuador was a worldie, with the Tottenham legend planting a free-kick into the top corner from a near-impossible angle.The 34-year-old’s goal against Uruguay was slightly more fortuitous, with an inswinging cross taking the slightest of touches off his foot before hitting the back of the net.It looks like they’ve confirmed the goal was awarded to Son… let's hope the next match goes well and Son manages to break the record as the Korean national team's all-time top scorer. 🙏🏼He has already scored 300 goals in his career. 🤍pic.twitter.com/2z0tMbyBme— Mari | ❀༉ (@mari_mavi5) September 28, 2026 READ MORE: 10 outstanding Jan Paul van Hecke stats as Tottenham star silences critics vs SerbiaThe post Rodrigo Bentancur vs Heung-min Son: Hugs and a 7/10 rating in Tottenham reunion appeared first on Spurs Web.
