Tottenham will play the first leg of the Europa League (UEL) quarterfinals at 4 a.m. on the 11th (Korea time) at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, in the 2024-2025 season. Frankfurt is a strong team that ranks third in the German Bundesliga this season.
Frankfurt manager Dino Toffmöller said ahead of the match, `I'm really looking forward to this game. It's a really important moment for all of us. Both teams are well qualified for the quarterfinals. It's going to be a breathtaking battle, and of course we want to win. We need to show our best performance as a team"I'm looking forward to meeting Tottenham."
Coach Topmüller was also the most wary of Son Heung-min. He said, `We are well aware of the individual skills of Son Heung-min, Dominic Solanke and several other players we will fight for. However, our team is a team that can beat Tottenham enough,' he said publicly referring to Son's name.

Frankfurt is already a team that knows what happens when Son Heung-min is not controlled. In the 2022-2023 season, Tottenham met Frankfurt in the group stage of the European Champions League (UCL). Frankfurt could not control Son Heung-min in the group stage match at Tottenham home.
Frankfurt led by Daichi Kamada's first goal, but allowed Son Heung-min to score an equalizer immediately. It was Son Heung-min's score in the team's teamwork with Harry Kane. Son Heung-min scored multiple goals when he connected Pierre-Emile Hoibier's cross with a perfect volley shot with a 2-1 lead. Frankfurt, who gave Son two goals, lost 2-3.

Son Heung-min will also have great motivation. This season Tottenham will have their worst season if they fail to win the UEL. His performance in the league has been broken enough that it couldn't get worse, and he has already been eliminated from other tournaments and has no chance to win. Son Heung-min will also be motivated to win the championship because he wants to finish this season successfully somehow and play in the UCL next season.
