Tottenham Hotspur, which Son Heung-min belongs to, beat Burnley to save its chances of advancing to the Champions League.

Tottenham won 2-1 at home against Burnley in the 37th round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League EPL that ended at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in Tottenham, England on the 11th. Tottenham 5th, which escaped from its recent slump in four consecutive losses with the victory, accumulated 63 points, narrowing its gap with Aston Villa 67 points in fourth place.

Tottenham only has two matches to play: 34th round 4 a.m. on Saturday, Manchester City and 38th round 0 a.m. on Sunday, Sheffield Wednesday. Aston Villa are ahead of matches against Liverpool in the 37th round on Thursday and Crystal Palace in the 38th round on Sunday. If Aston Villa win just one match in the two matches, Tottenham will not be able to regain fourth place even if it wins both of the remaining two matches. It will also fail to advance to the UEFA Champions League UCL finals next season, when the top four players are awarded in the regular season.

Son started the match on the day and played until the end of the match, but failed to score an offensive point. Son, who had 17 goals and nine assists in the league up to the previous day, postponed his chance to achieve the "10-10" club more than 10 goals and 10 assists. If Son adds one more assist in the remaining two games of the regular season, he will have his third career record of 10 goals and 10 assists in the EPL, following the 2019-2020 season 11 goals and 10 assists and the 2020-2021 season 17 goals and 10 assists. 토토사이트

After the game, Son Heung-min expressed his willingness not to give up his goal of recapturing fourth place until the final EPL match, saying on his Instagram, "I will be a team in all the remaining two games and pour everything out."

Burnley 24 points, who suffered upset loss to Tottenham on the day, is five points shorter than Nottingham Forest 29 points, which is the lower limit of remaining in the EPL, and will inevitably be demoted to the second division 18-20th regardless of the result of the final league match. Burnley, who came to the EPL after winning the Championship, the second division league last season, will return to the second division in just one season.
