Son Heung-min scored three goals and achieved a hat trick in the 2023-2024 England EPL 4th round away game against Burnley held at Turf Moor in Burnley, England on the 3rd (Korean time).

Son Heung-min scored the team’s 1-1 equalizer and his first goal of the season in the 16th minute of the first half.

He scored goals in succession in the 18th and 21st minutes of the second half.

It has been about a year since Son Heung-min scored three goals in one game in the 8th round of the 2022-2023 EPL season against Leicester City on September 17 last year.

Son Heung-min played 4 games, including 3 league games and the League Cup (Carabao Cup), but was unable to increase his attack points.

He contributed to the attack with his astute play every time he got the ball, but also made some selfless plays, such as passing the ball to a teammate in a better position.

However, in his fifth official game of the season as a front-line striker, he scored three goals, showing off his still-still ‘offensive instinct’.

As a result, Son Heung-min recorded 106 goals in his EPL career, surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo (103 goals) and Didier Drogba (104 goals) and ranked 30th on the EPL all-time scoring list.

Tottenham coach Angie Postecoglou judged that striker Richarlison’s recent performance was not good, so he boldly appointed Son Heung-min as the front line lone striker.

Tottenham got off to an uneasy start by conceding a goal just 4 minutes into the game, but Son Heung-min lived up to the coach’s expectations by balancing the game with a ‘chip shot’ in the 16th minute of the first half.

After controlling a long ball coming from behind, he gave it to Solomon and received it again, and shook the net with a shot that slightly passed the height of the rushing defender and goalkeeper.

In the 18th minute of the second half, when the team was ahead 3-1, he scored an additional goal with a right-footed shot from the center of the opponent’s goal, and three minutes later, he scored a goal with a left-footed shot from the left side of the penalty area after a ball stabbed by Poro.

Son Heung-min ended the game by being replaced by Richarlison in the 27th minute of the second half.

Son Heung-min swept the awards including best player of the game and highest rating thanks to his performance on this day.

After the game, he recorded 58.4% of the fan vote on the EPL official website, in which over 40,000 people participated, beating teammate James Maddison (27.1%) and being selected as ‘Man of the Match’.

Thanks to Son Heung-min’s performance, Tottenham continued its upward trend of 3 wins and 1 draw (10 points) in 4 EPL games, rising to 2nd place in the league after Man City (4 wins, 12 points).
