Heung-Min Son completes 100 Premier League goals

Tottenham Hotspur beat Brighton by 2-1 in the Premier League on Saturday.

Tottenham Hotspur’s star forward, Heung-Min Son, reached a historic milestone on Saturday evening, as he scored his 100th goal in the English Premier League. The South Korean international achieved the feat during his team’s 2-1 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion at their home stadium, the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Son, who joined Spurs from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015, has been a key player for the London-based club over the past six years. He has formed a formidable partnership with England captain Harry Kane, with the duo known for their telepathic understanding on the pitch.

The 28-year-old’s 100th Premier League goal came in the 10th minute of the match, when he calmly slotted the ball past Brighton goalkeeper Robert Sanchez. The goal was Son’s 13th of the season, and it helped Tottenham secure a vital three points in their push for a top-four finish.

Son’s achievement is even more impressive when considering that he is primarily a winger, rather than a traditional striker. He has consistently been one of the most productive attacking players in the Premier League, with his pace, skill, and clinical finishing ability making him a nightmare for opposition defenders.
