South Korean Premier League striker Son Heung-min (Tottenham) scored a multi-goal performance in the first meeting of the season between the two north London rivals.

Son Heung-min started as Tottenham's frontline striker in the team's 2023-24 English Professional Soccer Premier League Round 6 away match against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in London, England, on Thursday, scoring goals in the 42nd minute of the first half and 10 minutes into the second half. They were his fourth and fifth goals of the season.

Son's first goal came in the 42nd minute with Tottenham trailing 1-0. Playing as a Tottenham forward, Heung-min collected a ball from fellow midfielder James Maddison on the left flank of the opposition's danger area and finished with his left foot to equalize.

Ten minutes into the second half, with the score at 1-2, Heung-min scored again on a counterattack, receiving a pass from Maddison and finishing with a powerful right-footed shot from the front of the opposition penalty box. Two late goals from Son Heung-min helped Tottenham hold on for a 2-2 draw, extending their unbeaten streak to six games (4 W, 2 D) this season.

It was a significant multi-goal performance for the player himself. Not only did he take his tally to 199 goals since arriving in Europe, boosting his hopes of reaching the 200-goal milestone, but he also reaffirmed his reputation as the 'Arsenal sniper' 바카라사이트 by scoring seven goals against the Gunners (six in the league and one in cup competitions).
