Son Heung-min is trying hard to win. The pain of being eliminated from the English Football League (EFL) Cup will be left behind for a while and take on another challenge to win the FA Cup.
Son Heung-min's team, Tottenham, will face Aston Villa in the fourth round of the 2024-2025 FA Cup at Villa Park in Birmingham, England, at 2:35 a.m. on the 10th (Korea time).
Villa are Tottenham's first ordeal to be beaten to win the FA Cup trophy.
Villa currently have a strong power and can no longer be classified as a weak team. In the English Premier League (EPL), he is currently in eighth place, ranking one place above Tottenham (14th). It has become a strong team in the world as well. In the UEFA Champions League phase, where only the best teams participate, Villa ranked eighth and went straight to the round of 16. It is on par with strong teams such as Liverpool, Barcelona, Arsenal, and Inter.
Tottenham must beat Villa in order to advance to the round of 16. Son Heung-min recently missed one of the possible trophies this year as he lost 0-4 to Liverpool in the second leg of the EFL Cup semi-final. This is why we need to focus more than anything else in this Villa match. Fortunately, Villa are classified as a weaker team than Liverpool, which finished first in the league and the Champions League phase. It's a highly probable game. Recently, Villa has been exposed to defensive instability to the extent that they have lost all five games, and the atmosphere is not good with one win, two draws and two losses.
Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou is expected to make all-out efforts this game as he has a great desire to win. Some even say that Postecoglou could be replaced if he is eliminated from the FA Cup.

Give Me Sports England will be dismissed if they lose the match against Villa. There is a lot of pressure on his future," he said."Even though he brought a player from the winter transfer market, he lost the cup and the possibility of winning disappeared. If the FA Cup drops, he will not be able to lead the team."
It is true that Tottenham is dominant in recent opponents.
In the 10th round of the EPL this season, Tottenham won 4-1 against Villa. In the 28th round of last season, Son Heung-min also scored one goal and two assists, winning a 4-0 victory.
As criticism of Son Heung-min, who was eliminated from the EFL Cup, is pouring in, the performance of this game is expected to be important.
Jamie Redknapp of Sky Sports said, `I don't think Son Heung-min is the captain,' adding, `I've never seen him lead the team before. I thought about the various situations Tottenham suffered. What did he do?" he questioned.
Then "I feel sorry for Tottenham's young players. Jed Spence carried out too many missions. If I were a young player, I would want a senior who led me. "There is no player like that at Tottenham right now. This game against Liverpool was particularly terrible," he added.
He is Son Heung-min, who has played for Tottenham for nearly 10 years. Criticism has to be put up with because it is an argument. Maybe this will be Son's last season at Tottenham. The best way to achieve a successful finish is to lift the trophy. This is why we need to leave behind the defeat and criticism in the EFL Cup and lead the team in the FA Cup. Son Heung-min's challenge to win this season, the second stage, will begin soon.
