'Heung-min, it's now!'
Tottenham Hotspur Captain Son Heung-min (33) has a reason to return to the ground quickly somehow. The chances of winning are higher than ever. If we miss this opportunity, we don't know when we can get closer to winning again. Maybe it's the last chance of a career.
Tottenham will play the first leg of the UEFA Europa League semifinals at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, on May 2nd. The opponent is Norwegian professional team Bohd/Glimt. It is an unexpected surprise as a candidate for the semifinals in this tournament. Therefore, Tottenham is receiving higher evaluation in objective power evaluation.
However, in addition to this, there is good news. It has been reported that Bohd/Glimt cannot operate the best power in the first leg of the semifinals. It is bad news for Bodo/Glimt, but it is the best good news for Tottenham. This is because it means that the only remaining opportunity for self-esteem to recover and win the championship will be even greater this season. This is why Son Heung-min should get on this trend as soon as possible.
Football London, a British media outlet, is expected to exclude a large number of key players in the first match against Tottenham in the Europa League semifinals on the 29th (Korea time). He said his power was limited due to injuries and suspensions.

Some players are unable to come out due to accumulated warnings. Midfielders Patrick Berg and Hakon Evyen. Both players are confirmed to be excluded from the first round. Andreas Helmersen was suspended for his previous exit from the game.

From Tottenham's point of view, it can be seen as an opportunity given by heaven to secure the winning ticket. Coach Enze Postecoglou is also the last chance to save his pride.
Tottenham have been far below expectations due to injuries to their players that have continued this season. The FA Cup and Carabao Cup were eliminated in the round of 16 and semi-finals, respectively. This is rather good. The EPL record is the worst ever.
Tottenham suffered its 19th loss of the season (11 wins and 4 draws) in the 34th round away match against Liverpool on the 28th. This is Tottenham's record for the most losses in a season under the EPL system. He lost 19 games in the 1993–1994 season and the 2003–2004 season.
The problem is that there are still four more league games left. Postecoglou is already not paying attention to league games. All in on winning the Europa League. So in league games, I don't care if I lose or not, I'm saving power. This means that the loss is likely to increase further.

If you can't be together due to an injury at such an important time, it can be the biggest stain on your career. Coach Postecoglou mentioned that Son Heung-min may not be able to come out in the first round of the semifinals. However, he said he could come out in the second game. As the chance to win has increased, Son Heung-min should join the team by raising his physical condition as much as possible. That way, he can become the main player, not the best man for the championship.
