With the disclosure of the U.S. Professional Football (MLS) players' union, Son Heung-min (LAFC), who has been 'certified', will take the lead in offense without fail.

Son Heung-min, who finished the regular league of the U.S. Professional Football (MLS) in 2025 and had about 10 days to recharge, was listed on the first round of the MLS Cup playoff against Austin at 11:30 a.m. (Korea time) on the 30th (two wins out of three) at BMO Stadium in LA.

Son Heung-min will be deployed as a front-line striker and will hunt for a joint goal with Dnie Vuanga and Timothy Tillman.




Son Heung-min, who scored his ninth goal (10 games) of the season against Colorado (2-2 draw) on the 19th, will reach the double-digit score mark of the season if he scores two consecutive goals on the same day.

Son Heung-min has been named the only English Premier League (EPL) player to score double digits for nine consecutive seasons from 2016-2017 to 2024-2025 with his previous team, Tottenham. Although the stage is different, the record of double-digit scores will be increased to 10 seasons in a row when scoring on the day. Ahead of the match, expectations for a new 'Wonder Goal' grew as Son Heung-min won the MLS goal of the year with a free kick goal against Dallas, his MLS debut goal.

The match is meaningful in that it is Son Heung-min's first 'Autumn Soccer' in his 15th year as a professional. So far, Son Heung-min has only experienced Europe's autumn system as a member of Hamburg, Leverkusen (Germany), and Tottenham. MLS is a spring and autumn season that begins in the spring and ends in the fall, and the MLS Cup Playoff, a kind of postseason, is held after the regular league is completed. It is the first time Son Heung-min has played in the postseason.

LA will move to Austin's Q2 Stadium on November 3rd to play the second round, and if it has one win and one loss in two games, it will play Game 3 at BMO Stadium on November 8th to determine its advance to the quarterfinals. The first round is two wins out of three, but the quarterfinals, semi-finals, and finals are all single games. If he beats Austin in the playoffs, Son Heung-min's chances of winning his first league in his career will increase. Son Heung-min won the European Europa League last season as a member of Tottenham.
