Son Heung-min realizes his dream in 10 years! Tottenham s tears collapsed at night to win the championship, and the captain is embarrassed and has no medals?

"Ten years of drinking ice, it's hard to have a cold and passionate blood", this statement is simply tailor-made for Son Heung-min. From landing in Tottenham with the halo of "Asia's No. 1" in 2014 to winning the 2024 Europa League final, the Korean star forced the "Crownless Curse" into a "hot-blooded comic script". In the past ten years, he has seen the Champions League finals at a distance, has been ridiculed by fans' "data brushes", and has even been ridiculed by his own chairman for "trophy allergies". But who would have thought that when Tottenham overturned Manchester United with a 27% possession rate and three shots, 32-year-old Son Heung-min cried like a child who had just won the World Cup - after all, this was his first championship in his adult career! What’s more dramatic is that as the captain, he didn’t win the medal at the award ceremony. Netizens commented: “Does UEFA think Brother Sun will continue to run with him?” How many stories are hidden in this "sweetest and tear-jerking" championship night?
When the referee blew the final whistle, Son Heung-min sat on the turf and buried his face deep into the jersey - this picture is simply a magical footnote to his ten-year Tottenham career. You know, the Premier League Golden Boot winner came on the bench in the 67th minute of this game, touching the ball less than ten times, and even not getting a single shot. But when the camera swept over his red face and trembling shoulders, no one would laugh at him for "lying down the crown", because everyone knows: behind this championship is a 3,650-day wait, 237 Premier League appearances, and those nights torn apart by injuries and doubts. The competition process is even more catching horses than Korean dramas. Tottenham was beaten up by Manchester United in the whole game, and the ball possession rate was so low that fans laughed at themselves, "We are playing cage football, right?" But in the 41st minute, Saar hit Luke Xiao with a cross and bounced into the net. This "choose-choice-owned" directly made Tottenham fans make "Scientific Raising" a hot search. Son Heung-min on the bench was squeezing his thighs, afraid of laughing out loud to destroy the "defensive cause". When he finally got on the battlefield, there were only two tasks left: spending time with a rebate run, and controlling the tear glands with expressions. There was even a black humor at the award ceremony. As the captain, Son Heung-min stood in the C position. When he raised the trophy, the ribbon was covered with his face, but when he looked down, his neck was empty! It turned out that UEFA was so stingy that he didn't even have enough gold medals. Korean netizens were so angry that they picked up photos overnight: "Brother Sun, don't cry, the medals are being declared at the customs office!" But this embarrassment cannot afford to be sad for ten years? He held the trophy and cried and laughed, making the commentator break his defense: "The last time I saw him crying like this, it was because he was eliminated by Mexico in the 2018 World Cup..."
Son Heung-min's "crying broadcast" game was more than just a gold medal? It is clearly a love letter to all "long-distance runners" - written to himself who was 18 years old and went to hamburger alone, to his father's devil's special training "practice shooting 1,000 times a day", and to those who are called "uncrowned kings". When young and handsome guys are busy speculating on character designs and playing games, this 32-year-old "old boy" has proved with ten years of persistence that fairy tales do not have to be gorgeous, but can also be an own goal + 90 minutes of shrinking defense. Those who laugh at him as "champion insulator" may have forgotten: the most moving scene on the football field is never the genius' fame, but the mortals' tempering of steel. So, next time I see Son Heung-min, don’t ask “When will you win the championship”, it’s better to say “Congratulations, I finally put the bench on the throne.” After all, even UEFA owes him a medal, isn't it more ignited than any script?
