Son Heung-min beats Henry to Drogba, 3rd goal, 10 goals. 10 assists

Korean football's "Ace" Son Heung-min 31, Tottenham is on the verge of achieving his third career "10 goals-10 assists."

In the match against Nottingham Forest in the 32nd round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League EPL at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 8th, Son Heung-min helped Mickey Van der Pen's winning goal in the 7th minute of the second half to contribute to Tottenham's 3-1 victory.

With this help, Son Heung-min has increased his cumulative attack points in the league to 15 goals and 9 assists this season.

Now, Son Heung-min will achieve 10 goals-10 assists for the third time in his career if he makes just one assist in the remaining seven games.

Son Heung-min scored 11 goals and 10 assists in the 2019-2020 season, becoming the first Asian player to reach the 10-10 goal mark in the EPL.

He then scored 17 goals and 10 assists in the 2020-2021 season, scoring double digits for the second consecutive year.

Having double digits in both scoring and helping in a season is a record that even top strikers find difficult to achieve.

In this season's EPL, Ollie Watkins Aston Villa has 18 goals and 10 assists, the only one to break 10 goals and 10 assists so far.

In the history of the EPL, there are not many players like Son Heung-min who have scored 10 goals and 10 assists twice.

Top stars of his time, such as Dennis Bergamp 1997-1998, 1998-1999, Thierry Henry 2002-2003, 2004-2005; Arsenal, and Chris Sutton 1993-1994 Norwich City, 1994-1995 Blackburn, have reached the same rank as Son Heung-min.

Only five players have scored 10 goals-10 assists or more than three times.

Muhammad Salah Liverpool and Didier Drogba Chelsea achieved the record three times, and Eric Cantona Manchester United and Frank Lampard Chelsea achieved the record four times.

Wayne Rooney Manchester United has scored 10 goals and 10 assists in a season five times, the most ever.

If Son Heung-min makes one more assist, he will go beyond Verkamp and Henry and stand shoulder to shoulder with Drogba and Salah.

Usually, front-line strikers focus on scoring goals, while second-line strikers and midfielders support goaltenders in front.

It's hard to find a player who is good at both. 안전놀이터

Son Heung-min, who has the ability to finish on his own and knows how to give his teammates a goal chance, is a special striker.

On this day, Son Heung-min was placed on the front line, but when the opponent's check was focused on him, he focused on saving his teammate's play, and eventually helped with the winning goal.

Son Heung-min will challenge to achieve his third career goal of 10-10 assists in the 33rd round against Newcastle at 8:30 p.m. on the 13th.

The 'superstar' Ohtani, who hit a home run in 9 games

He is a superstar who has won two MVP awards in the Major League Baseball and even signed the biggest contract ever in four major professional sports in the U.S., but he couldn't wait until his first home run came out. Then, he was relieved to see his first home run that finally came out. Shohei Ohtani L.A. Dodgers was also a human being.

Ohtani started the home game against the San Francisco Giants at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles on the 4th as a designated hitter and recorded two hits, one RBI and two runs in four times at bat.

One of his two hits on the day was his first homer of the season. With his team leading 4-3, Ohtani hit a 131-meter homer off San Francisco lefty Taylor Rogers in the bottom of the seventh inning with two outs and no runners, with his team leading 4-3. It was his first homer of the season in nine games since the season opened, which was all the more valuable as he was being chased by a one-run gap.

"I felt that I haven't been able to hit for quite some time," Ohtani said in an interview with local reporters including Daily Sports after the game. "I didn't have a good batting performance either. I was relieved that I had one shot," he said. "I felt that it was gradually improving, but I think it is a different level of issues than what leads to the result. Even batting coaches, manager Dave Roberts and batting pitchers are supporting me by talking about how to adjust the situation. I think the results are also important in terms of communication."

Ohtani was able to get the Dodgers' first homerun ball back on the day thanks to fans' concession. "I talked to my fans and they offered to give it to me. It was a special ball for me, so I was very grateful," Ohtani said. "They gave me two hats and a bat. I signed autographs."

Ohtani had a hard time being involved in the sports gambling scandal of interpreter Mazhara Ifei during the opening two consecutive games against the San Diego Padres held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul from the 20th to the 21st of last month. There were also suspicions that Ohtani's home run was rarely seen and that it was related to this. In addition, an interview on the 3rd indicated that he had a cold.

"The cold was in vogue, but it has gotten a lot better recently," Ohtani said. "I don't want to use my mentality as an excuse. That is also my ability. Because I was not good enough I haven't gotten good results so far," he said, blaming himself for all the blame. 안전놀이터

Happy Ohtani celebrates her first home run of the season through SNS

Shohei Ohtani LA Dodgers posted photos and posts celebrating his first home run of the season on SNS.

Ohtani started as the second designated hitter in a home game against the San Francisco Giants at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California on the 4th.

Before the game, Ohtani failed to meet expectations with a batting average of 242 percent 8 hits in 33 times at bat with three RBIs and five runs scored.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said of Ohtani's lackluster performance, "I have a slight problem with my timing. If you work hard, you will do well. I can hit, but I think I have to hit some balls that I miss," adding, "I think I have to hit those balls well. I'm not struggling because I'm too talented. My performance tells me. Hitting is a difficult thing to do."

Ohtani displayed stellar performance by making two hits, one RBI and two runs from four times at bat, as he hit his first arch of this season in the seventh inning when his team was leading 4-3. The Dodgers beat San Francisco 5-4, continuing its four-game winning streak.

"I was nervous because my batting didn't get as good as I did a little bit," Ohtani said after the game. "I tried to swing my swing by holding back the desire to hit my first home run as soon as possible. I'm glad that I finally got my first home run," Ohtani said. "I thought watching the ball was the most important thing, so I focused on creating a stance that I could understand on my own." 토토사이트

"I talked to Roberts and he said I need to do it confidently, so I feel at ease, and I will continue to work hard as the result comes out today," he said. "It would be great if this many fans come into the baseball stadium every day. I think I can get good energy, so I will work harder with the support of the fans."

After the game, Ohtani posted a home run video and the phrase "Special moments" on his Instagram.

The Korea Women's Basketball Federation WKBL confirmed and announced 20 people on the 3rd, including 5 first FA recipients who can exercise their first FA rights after their debut and 15 second FA recipients who can negotiate with all clubs.

The first FA targets are Shin Yi-seul Yongin Samsung Life Insurance, Lee Hye-mi Incheon Shinhan Bank, Park Ji-hyun, Na Yoon-jung Woori Bank, and Kim Dan-ah Bucheon Hana One Q.

They will first negotiate with the original team during the first round of negotiations and then negotiate with other teams from the second round of negotiations in case of a breakdown.

From the first FA period, there are a total of 15 people eligible for the second FA, including Kim Dan-bi, Kim Han-bi, and Park Hye-mi Samsung Life Insurance, Kim Sonia, Kim Areum, and Lee Hae-eun Shinhan Bank, Park Hye-jin, Choi Yi-sam Woori Bank, Kim Si-on, Yang In-young Hana Bank, Kim Han-byul, Ahn Hye-ji, and Jinan BNK, and Shim Sung-young and Yeom Yoon-ah KB Stars. 토토사이트

Two candidates for Liverpool's next coach

Who will be Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp's successor.

"Saby Alonso chose to stay in Bayer 04 Leverkusen. He will be excluded from the candidate for Liverpool's next coach," adding, "He is more likely to be appointed by Roberto De Gerby or Huven Amorim."

Liverpool have long been searching for a successor as Klopp's resignation was confirmed after the end of the season. Michael Edwards has been appointed as the CEO of the club's leadership Fenway Sports Group (FSG), and the addition of Bournemouth general manager Richard Hughes has been officially announced, accelerating the selection of a coach.

Initially, contact with Alonso was the most promising candidate. As a player, he lifted the UEFA Champions League trophy in Liverpool and continued to express his affection for the team after the move, which was a factor of expectation. Other coaches such as DeGerbi, Amorim, and Julian Nagelsmann have also been included in the list.

Contrary to the wishes of Liverpool fans, Alonso chose to stay at Leverkusen. Leading media outlets reported on Alonso's stay. Bayern Munich President Uli Hönes, who was looking for a replacement for Thomas Tuchel, also said, "It is true that Alonso's appointment has become very difficult."

Liverpool's next coach is expected to be a two-way race. It is a competition between Debbie Brighton and Hove Albion, and Amorim Sporting CP. Both coaches are young and have a clear tactical philosophy, which is appropriate for their management.

De Gehrby took the helm of Brighton in September 2022 under Graham Potter. He was nicknamed the "second Guardiola" for his tactics that put importance on rear build-up and forward pressure. This season, which is in its third year, is continuing its competition to advance to the European competition despite key players leaving the team. 토토사이트

Director Roberto De Gerby Brighton and Hove Albion.

Amorim is the one who ended the reign of FC Porto-SL Benfica in the Portuguese Premier League. Having started his coaching career in 2018, Amorim led SC Braga in 2020 and won the trophy at the other company's Dar Liga. Afterwards, he took the helm of Sporting and shook the landscape of the league that Porto and Benfica used to divide, eventually winning the league title for the first time in 19 years.

He is also drawing attention as a 39-year-old young manager. Amorim, who was dismissed for poor performance when Portugal was its first manager in the third division, has grown into the champion's manager of the first division team a year later. His 3-4-3 system, which does not hesitate to deploy attacks, has now become Amorim's trademark. There are still endless possibilities for development.
