'This is crazy. Messi also failed to block this, scoring eight goals in eight matches, and picking Son Heung-min as the best 11 in the fourth round of MLS.'
This momentum seems to be impossible to stop even Lionel Messi (Inter Miami).

Son Heung-min (LAFC) occupied the U.S. Major League Soccer (MLS) with a form that surpassed his peak during his Tottenham Hotspur days. It has already been selected as the fourth best 11 of the week 'Team of the Match Day'.

The MLS Secretariat announced the 'Team of the Match Day' of the 2025 season MLS Match Day 37 on the 30th (Korea time). It's a weekly best 11. Son Heung-min was picked again. Based on the performance of Matchday 37, the MLS Secretariat selected players in a 3-4-3 formation. Son Heung-min was proudly listed on the three-top offensive line. 'Soccer Emperor' Messi didn't get in here.




Regarding the reason for selecting Son Heung-min, MLS continued to play enthusiastically in MLS, leading his team to a 3-0 victory over St. Louis. He scored two goals in the eighth game.

As a result, Son Heung-min was selected as the "Weekly Best 11" four times in eight games since his MLS debut. Son Heung-min's MLS debut was in the 28th round against Chicago Fire FC on August 10. At this time, he was replaced in order to adapt and performed limitedly. However, Son Heung-min quickly adjusted, and has since been recognized for his best performance in the league four times in as many as seven games. Son Heung-min showed his best performance in the 37th round of Match Day following Match Day 29, 30, and 35.

Son Heung-min's performance is changing the status of LA FC's team. LA FC has emerged as the best-known club in MLS since Son Heung-min joined the team. Electricity itself has also skyrocketed. LA FC won four consecutive games with a 3-0 victory over St. Louis City SC in the 37th round at Energizer Park in St. Louis, Missouri on the 28th. Son scored two goals.




In particular, Dnie Buangawa's 'Heung Bu Duo' has a sensational destructive power. In the match against St. Louis, Buanga scored the first goal in the 15th minute of the first half, and Son Heung-min scored two goals to seal the victory in the extra time of the first half and the 15th minute of the second half.

As a result, these 'Heungbu Duo' had an overwhelming synergy effect, scoring 17 goals in the last six games. Son Heung-min scored eight goals, and Buanga scored nine. The opposing defense is confused about who to block. It surpasses Son Heung-min's 'Sonqueduo' that he made with Harry Kane during his time at Tottenham. In fact, they scored 17 goals in six games, surpassing the previous MLS record of '15 goals in minimum games'. The previous record was 10 games that Nashville SC's Hani Mukhtar (10 goals) and Sam Surridge (5 goals) collaborated between May and July. The number of games was greatly reduced, and more goals were scored.

Thanks to his outstanding performance, Son immediately elevated his status to 'Messi grade'. The contract with LA FC is already known to be similar to Messi's contract with Inter Miami. Son Heung-min can actively express his opinion on team formation. It's a privilege, but it's not strange at all. Son proved himself with his skill.
