"The left winger is Son Heung-min!"
Son Heung-min (33)'s first career trophy challenge is imminent.
Son Heung-min's Tottenham will face Manchester United in the Europa League final at 4 a.m. on the 22nd (Korea time) at San Mames Stadium in Bilbao, Spain.
It is a one-of-a-lifetime match for Son Heung-min and Tottenham, who have been particularly troubled this season. For Son Heung-min, who wore a Tottenham uniform in 2015, the dream of his first career trophy came to reality. It was the first European League final in six years since losing to Liverpool in the 2019 European Champions League final, Tottenham's last victory was 17 years ago in the 2008 League Cup, and Tottenham won the UEFA Cup 41 years ago.
Tottenham won three consecutive games against Amorim's Manchester United this season. On September 30 last year, he won his first away match in the league, 3-0, thanks to consecutive goals by Brennan Johnson, Dejan Klusevski and Dominic Solanke, and won the League Cup on December 20, 4-3, thanks to Solanke's multi-goal, Klusevski and Son Heung-min's consecutive goals, and 1-0 thanks to James Maddison's winning goal, most recently on February 17.
The Daily Mail predicted the best 11 in Tottenham and Manchester United ahead of the Europa League final. Manchester United's defense line is a problem due to injuries to Matisse de Ligt and Rihandro Martinez, and Tottenham's injury gap of midfielders such as Dejan Klusevski, James Madison, and Lucas Bergbal, who were strong against Manchester United, was a problem, and eight of the best 11 integrated players were Tottenham. Manchester United legend Gary Neville also said in an overlapping fan debate that he would pick all of the best 11 players for Tottenham, adding that only Bruno Fernandes will be able to make the Tottenham Best 11.
In the 4-3-3 formation, the Daily Mail put forward Vicario as the goalkeeper and Porro-Romero-Vanderven-Udogi as the four-back. Tottenham took control of the defensive line.Manchester United Ugarte, Fernandez and Tottenham Bentancourt were selected in the midfield.Right winger Ahmad (Manchester United), center forward Solanke (Tottenham) and left winger Son Heung-min. He then commented that although he is not a big fan of this choice, Son Heung-min can nod his head in terms of being able to beat uneven Alejandro Garnacho on the left side. "Son Heung-min has been involved in 22 goals this season. His form is declining after his prime. Although he is not the same player as he was in the past, Son Heung-min is eager to lift his first career trophy and give fans something to celebrate. His voice on and off the field will play an important role. It's not the old player, but it can still be a serious threat in attack," he added. He then introduced Son Heung-min's determination for the Europa League final. "The main reason I stayed at Tottenham was to do what others didn't. It feels different this time. I want to win more than anyone else. Many people are rooting for us with the same passion as me. I believe that if we prepare well enough, we can make it."
