A ceremony to bite his hand is a hot topic
Dominic Solanke, the new Tottenham attack partner of Captain Son Heung-min, who drew attention with his unique ceremony during his time at Bournemouth, scored a wedge goal in the 23rd minute of the second half in the first round of the European Europa League UEL phase against Karabakh at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, on the 27th, frowning and biting his right hand.
As it turned out, the main character in Japan’s famous animation Giant of Advance copied the movement of Ehren Yeager biting his hand to stimulate him when he did Giant. Has Solanke, who joined Tottenham last summer for 65 million pounds about 115 billion won, the club’s highest transfer fee, expressed his ambition to become a giant of Tottenham?
Solanke was silent in his debut match against Leicester City EPL opening game on the 19th of last month and missed two games due to an ankle injury, but after scoring his debut goal in the fifth round of the EPL with Brentford on the 21st, he exploded his second consecutive goal in six days. It is a similar start to Son Heung-min, who scored his Tottenham debut goal in the Europa League Karabakh in 2015 and immediately scored consecutive goals in the league Crystal Palace.
It was none other than Son Heung-min who helped Solanke score a decisive goal on the day. Tottenham, which was in a numerical inferiority after defender Radu Dragusin was sent off in the eighth minute of the first half, led 2-0 with consecutive goals by Brennan Johnson in the 12th minute of the first half and Pape Sarr in the 7th minute of the second half, Son Heung-min attempted a sharp right-footed shot towards the goal in the 23rd minute of the second half. Solanke quickly ran and pushed the ball into the net that the opposing goalkeeper Mateutz Kochalski saved. Tottenham, where 10 players fought, won 3-0.
In the 26th minute of the second half, Son Heung-min, who was replaced by Timo Werner when he was suspected of being injured, 안전놀이터 accumulated assist from the first game. In the EPL, rebound scoring by shooting is not recorded as assist, but it is recognized as assist in competitions against European clubs such as the Europa League and the Champions League. The UEFA regulations state that If you score a goal with the last pass, cross, header, or shot, you will be granted assist. Even if you score a rebound from a goal post or a ball that hit the opponent, it will be recorded as assist.
Son Heung-min, who helped Johnson and James Maddison to score goals against Brentford, proved himself as an otherwise player with three assists in the last two matches. Son, who was suspected of being injured, said in an interview with Mixzone after the match that he was fine. Tottenham manager Engie Postecoglou explained the reason for the substitution as he was a little tired.
Solanke displayed various animation celebrations when he was in Bournemouth. He wore an orange mask and imitated Obito Naruto character, Rupee One Piece character hitting the floor with his right fist, and Gojo Sator Twitching character crossing the index finger of his right hand and middle finger. This gives a glimpse of how much Solanke likes animations. Tottenham also figured out Solanke’s personality in advance and made official photos into animations.
